Charles Phoenix Retro Holiday Slide Show - Los Angeles

Be prepared for your holiday spirit to soar when the Ambassador of Americana, Charles Phoenix, leads you on a hilarious hi-octane adventure extravaganza into his wild and wacky world of "flea-market found" vintage Kodachrome slides, and epic holiday inspired "test kitchen" and field trip finds.

Expect this deep fried and delicious dose of New Years, Easter, Fourth of July, Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas to get you in the mood for the holidays like never before!

With abundant joy, clever wit, and keen eye for odd-ball detail, Charles lavishes the very best of his mid-century "mom and pop pix" with colorful commentary on the way we, crazy Americans, decorated, dressed, dined, and drank for the holidays in the 50s & 60s!

Charles also and shares his latest epic holiday inspired "test kitchen" and field trip experiments and adventures including the "Christmas Dinner Car-B-Q" and "Yule Log Flambe."

This special performance takes place at Modernica Props World's greatest display of mid-century furniture, décor, electronics and more ... housed in LA's former Ho Ho and Twinkie factory
