>>> THE MUSICAL SIDESHOW TELLS THE STORY OF DAISY AND VIOLET
HILTON WHO TOURED THE U.S. IN
VAUDEVILLE AND CIRCUS
SIDESHOWS.
SIDESHOWS. A NEW DIRECTION IS SET TO PLAY
IN HOUSTON WITH MORE ARE THE
SHOWS TWO STARS WE HAVE TERESA
ZIMMERMAN AND HOLLAND.
IT IS HARD TO BELIEVE TODAY
WHAT PEOPLE USED TO DO WITH
PEOPLE WHO ARE DIFFERENT BACK
IN THE DAY.
IT IS SO GREAT TO BRING THIS TO
LIFE.
LIFE.
LIFE. WITH THIS, WHAT LESSONS WE WANT
PEOPLE TO BE REMINDED OF?
>> I THINK A MAJOR THEME IN
THIS SHOW IS LOVE AND
ACCEPTANCE, SELF ACCEPTANCE AND
SELF-LOVE, AND ALSO
UNDERSTANDING THE BOND THAT
SISTERS HAVE AND KNOWING THAT
THAT WILL ALWAYS BE THERE.
>> THE STORY IS OF CONJOINED
TWINS WHO BACK THEN SOMEONE
SAID LET'S PUT THEM ON THE ROAD
AND THAT WAS A WAY TO EARN A
LIVING AND PEOPLE WOULD COME
AND STARE.
AND STARE. PEOPLE WOULD COME AND LOOK BUT
THEY WOULD WALK AWAY THINKING
THESE ARE HUMAN BEINGS.
>> I THINK A HUGE PART OF THE
SHOW IS UNDERSTANDING THAT THE
NORMAL PEOPLE, THE HUMANS, ARE
SOME OF THE MOST INHUMANE ONES
IN THE SHOW AND THE PEOPLE THAT
ARE DEEMED FREAKS EXHIBIT A LOT
OF HUMANITY.
OF HUMANITY. >> YEAH, ALL RIGHT.
PLAYING THIS ROLE HAD TO BE
KIND OF CRAZY.
YOU ARE ALWAYS IN TANDEM WITH
THE OTHER ACTORS.
YOU ARE IN TANDEM, YOU ARE TIED
TO EACH OTHER AND LITERALLY.
WHAT WAS THAT LIKE TO GET USED
TO?
TO?
TO? >>
TO? >> WE
TO? >> WE GOT PRETTY GOOD AT NOW.
>> YESTERDAY WE UPGRADED TO --
WE AUTOMATICALLY ARE MOVING AND
WE KNOW HOW TO MOVE TOGETHER.
IT HAS GONE PRETTY QUICKLY TO
GET THE IDEA.
>> SPEAKING OF SIDESHOWS, YOU
HAVE A SIDE JOB.
>> I DO.
>> I DO.
>> I DO. I'M IN TIMES OUT OF COSTUME
REMNANTS AND I SEE LOTS OF
BOWTIES AND IT IS NAMED AFTER
DAVID BOWIE AND FREDDIE
MERCURY.
MERCURY.
MERCURY. >> THERE YOU GO.
HOLLAND, BOTH OF YOU WERE KIND
OF BORN INTO THEATER FAMILIES.
THEY WENT, NO, THE A DOCTOR
INSTEAD.

INSTEAD. >> YEAH.

>> YEAH. BEFORE YOU SING, YOUR BEST
ADVICE FOR PEOPLE WHO WANT TO
GO INTO THEATER BECAUSE IT IS
ONE OF THOSE DREAM JOBS I GET
ASKED THAT QUESTION A LOT.

REMARKABLE YOU IS THE MOST
AUTHENTIC YOU.
