Pageant of the Masters re-creation of “Bon-Ton Burlesquers Poster” for the 2010 production, “Eat, Drink & Be Merry.”

During the 2010 Pageant's extensive tribute to the Art of Mardi Gras, a huge parade of costumed cast members and rolling wagon stages moved through the Bowl while strings of Mardi Gras beads were tossed into the audience. That summer nearly 80,000 strings of beads were given away.
