    A look at the charms and challenges of small town life in America during the first half of the 20th century, presented entirely in color. At the turn of the 20th century, two-thirds of Americans live in small towns, but by the 1960s, only a third remain. Some are lured to cities by the promise of opportunity and money, while others move there to escape racism and intolerance. Through it all, the myth of these quaint, harmonious communities continues to burn powerfully in the minds of many. This is the story of small town America, from soap box derbies and Will Rogers' charm to postwar poverty and the Great Migration, presented in color. TVPG-V / 48 min Part of our America 250 Smithsonian Channel Film Series, this special presentation explores the people, moments, and events that shaped the American story.

    View original ↗

    Taylor Swift has been ranked by Billboard as one of the greatest artists of all time, alongside other legends like The Beatles, Michael Jackon, and Madonna, to name a few. Swift has deservedly earned this spot, and is undoubtedly loved and adored by her fans, known to the world as โ€œSwifties.โ€ After close to 20 years in the music industry, Taylor Swift has proven herself as a music icon, being the first and only artist to win a Grammy for Album of the Year 4 years in a row. In 2023, Taylor Swift began her iconic Eras Tour in the US. Since then, the Eras Tour has become a billion-dollar global phenomenon, and the highest grossing tour in history. Are You Ready For It? A Taylor Experience, recreates the magic of the Eras Tour in a spectacular, unforgettable show starring Traci Marie as Taylor. Traciโ€™s attention to detail will not go unnoticed by Swifties. Her authentic costumes, mannerisms, and voice embody the essence of Taylor Swift. This theatrical style show is filled with everything youโ€™d expect to see from the Eras Tour; choreography, stunning multimedia visuals, costume changes, and audience participation. Traci, a small-town theater girl from the suburbs of Chicago, grew up surrounded by musical talent. Throughout her career, she has opened for national touring artists like Tony Orlando, The Righteous Brothers, Chubby Checker, and others. Sheโ€™s performed with Felix Cavaliere of The Rascals, and Dennis Tufano of The Buckinghams fame. This former โ€œMiss Congenialityโ€ winner is also currently nominated for Tribute Artist of the Year, (2024) for the Josie Music Awards. Are You Ready For It? A Taylor Experience, features a live band tribute to the most successful tour in music history. Whether youโ€™re a Swiftie, or new to Taylorโ€™s music, this fast paced, energetic, captivating show, is a must see event!
