这些艺术家在表演之后都会用各种方式暗示或者明说希望各位观众给点钱...;D 一般会有帽子,袜子这样的东东等着你...小朋友们会转身向大人要钱然后很兴奋的扔到帽子里...另外这些表演的时候一个很普遍的现象是邀请观众参与,尤其是在无年龄限制的情况下往往会邀请坐在前排伸手最高的小朋友...而往往表演者也会要求观众们给与这些小朋友一些掌声来鼓励他们...

The tradition of the traveling vaudeville performer lives on in the unlikely and delightful form of Hokum W. Jeebs. Hokum started his professional career falling off piano benches for laughs at community talent shows in his native Syracuse, New York. A degree in Music Education led to a job teaching elementary and junior high music. On weekends he played ragtime in bars, directed musical theatre and was a church choir conductor. Four years later he packed his trunks and headed west to the streets of San Francisco – the training ground of many unusual acts.
* G& v3 u- {5 _5 i" A3 K3 L; [4 J u( K* ^/ D+ \6 q
His street show developed into a classic vaudeville style act that has now been performed in thousands of places as varied as Orlando, Sydney, Anchorage, Tokyo and Edmonton. In 1992, Hokum settled in West Seattle and co-founded “Hokum Hall” – a not-for-profit performance space featuring vaudeville, ragtime, silent movies and a mighty Wurlitzer Theatre Pipe Organ. His PIANO A LA CART – a piano on a tricycle – is featured at many state fairs and festivals across North America. He is happy to be bringing his trunk and truck full of musical tricks back to Edmonton for StreetFest 2004.3 A- X5 Z; [3 V( i q/ v, o9 U5 I

If actions speak louder than words, Rob Torres screams fun. Whether he’s changing his clothes, setting the table, or just sitting down, his unique way of finding absurdity in common everyday tasks will leave you laughing. Rob’s blend of circus skills and physical comedy makes all his shows memorable events... no matter what language you speak. Rob has performed on stages, streets and cruise ships around the world. StreetFest is thrilled to have him return to Edmonton with his ever-popular circle shows and his indoor show “Funeee Fellows in Comedy Shorts” which will be part of the festival’s 2004 “Street to the Stage Series”.
