Players are theater owners in the Vaudeville circuit circa 1890 – 1910. They will book acts from the booking agent or the circuit to earn cash and fame. Cash buys more acts, and fame progresses the player on the fame track and unlocks bigger shows and allows more acts in the finale. Act category values are manipulated by the player during the game in the attempt to make their acts more popular and their opponent’s acts less popular. The Finale is triggered when the turn token reaches the final space on the turn tracker. Earn the most fame in the Finale to win.
