Castro Valley mogul eyes comeback for vaudeville shows
Vern Denoble, Castro Valley talent scout and Crest Enterprises founder, aims to revive live vaudeville style in the Bay Area with talent searches and intermission shows between films. He cites erosion of showmanship by rock culture and seeks polished acts, with Donny Osmond and Charo among favorites. Denoble, once on KRON-TV and in Warner Brothers casting, plans broad productions featuring local amateurs, while promoting a lecture tour on show creation. He believes a vaudeville revival could boost live entertainment and cultural tone.
