The All-Star & Legends show is a special night of peformers either nominated by their peers or hand selected by the planning committee of the Hoot!
Our Host: Tommy Breen
Tommy Breen quit his job to join the carnival and live his dream of being a professional sword swallower. "The King of the Sideshow", Ward Hall, taught Breen how to be a Front Talker, and he has been traveling with the World of Wonders show ever since. For the last 13 years the show has taken him across the country driving stakes, wrangling snakes, decapitating showgirls in the Guillotine Illusion, and getting coffee for fire eating pygmies. He has been seen at state fairs with the World of Wonders, in clubs with The 999 Eyes, on The Travel Channel's American Sideshow, and is excited to host a night of sideshow superstars at the 4th Annual Southern Sideshow Hootenanny!
