Charles Phoenix’s Retro Holiday Slide ShowSaturday December 5, 2009
King of Retro, Charles Phoenix returns to spread holiday cheer with a slyly entertaining live comedy performance that celebrates mid-century holiday life and style. With his unstoppable enthusiasm and wry, eagle eye for the very best and most bizarre of his massive collection of found-Kodachrome slides, Phoenix supercharges the classic living room slide show into a hysterical/historical celebration of American holiday life and style. Sidney D. Gamble Lecture Series
