Established in 2009, The Silhouettes® is a world-renowned shadow-theatre company that rose to stardom via America’s Got Talent! They were the first runner-up on season 6 in 2011 and were Golden Buzzer winners on AGT: The Champions in 2020. Their remarkable appearances on America's Got Talent! garnered an immense global following, ultimately leading to a residency at the Luxor on the iconic Las Vegas Strip! They have been featured in TV commercials, on the Muscular Dystrophy Show of Strength, Nickelodeon’s See Dad Run, Netflix’s MC2, and have created customized corporate events for major Fortune 500 corporations. They have traveled the world from Ireland to Poland to Mexico and Canada, receiving standing ovations and outstanding press reviews.
Under the guidance of Lynne Waggoner-Patton, the company excels in delivering captivating and emotionally-driven live performances. For the 26/27 performing arts season, The Silhouettes® are offering their family-friendly presentation of HEROES TRIBUTE, a show whose patriotic American history content makes it eligible for NEA grants. During HEROES TRIBUTE, audiences will travel through the greatest moments in American history, beginning with the Mayflower landing at Plymouth Rock, the Revolutionary War, Betsy Ross and the creation of the American flag, to Abraham Lincoln, Lewis and Clark’s great expedition into the west, World Wars I and II, and more, all while honoring the sacrifices made by our soldiers, our veterans, our first responders, and more. HEROES TRIBUTE honors the great heroes of the United States of America through the art of shadow theatre. It’s American history like never seen before.
The Silhouettes® mission is to help children reach their dreams and goals no matter what their situation in life and give them the strength and knowledge to make a huge impact in our world. Therefore, they are pleased to offer venues important educational/community outreach activities, including school shows, special presentations designed to add “A” for ARTS to existing scholastic STEM programs, and “Shadow Jam residencies” that teach shadow theatre to children in your market, and allow the children to perform a shadow dance as the opening act to a Silhouettes ticketed performance. They can even work with a local children’s choir to enhance some of the shadow storytelling. All great ways to involve the community and ensure terrific box office success.
