Doc Severenson

Here was a very nice fellow, fun to work with. We were together a whole week. He worked with a full orchestra, and we were one of several specialty acts who performed during his pre-show and intermission "breather breaks". He not only wowed the audience with his marvelous horn-playing, he wowed them with his famous outrageous wardrobe! He would WAIT for us to come out in yet another super costume, he loved it!! He finally said, we've GOT to have a picture together! So, here it is!
