Victoria Mansion will present three American Magic-Lantern Theater shows as part of a year-long celebration that examines the 1890s to 1930s. As a popular form of entertainment in the 1890s, Magic-Lantern shows will engage students with an overview of American History highlighting the Civil War years prior to next year's commemoration, entertain families with Victorian Christmas stories and carols tying in to Victoria Mansion's annual holiday house decoration, and enthrall young children with Victorian stories, games, and songs as part of the Kiddie Show.
