FRIDAY NIGHT HEADLINER - THE VW BOYS April 15, 2011 Monticello Opera House The VW Boys' show is a unique blend of talent consisting of music, magic and comedy, a complete variety show. Audiences of all ages enjoy the VW Boys show. The VW Boys perform a wide range of shows from Dollywood in Pigeon Forge, TN to openings for comedic greats such as Jerry Clower and Don Knotts. The VW Boys blend several different aspects of entertainment in their show. As banjo picker and singer Tim White says, " We entertain folks for an hour or so and help them forget their problems for a little while". These "folks" can be middle aged, senior citizens or children (of all ages). A good portion of the VW Boys show is audience participation. The VW Boys have a way of going beyond the edge of the stage to really get an audience involved in the show. Larry McPeak says, "We are as good as our audience, but we seem to always have great audiences!"
