DECATUR, Ill. – Using light, color, video, photographs, dance, acting, and mime, The Silhouettes will command the stage at Millikin’s Kirkland Fine Arts Center and unfold visual stories filled with depth, intrigue, beauty, and mystique during their performance on Friday, February 7, 2025, at 7:30 p.m.
During their performance, The Silhouettes will perform their “LOVE HAPPENS” show with tickets ranging from $20-$30 that can be purchased at kirklandfinearts.com. Children’s tickets are $12.
“We are delighted to host The Silhouettes at Millikin University,” said Millikin Director of Kirkland Fine Arts Bryan Diver. “Their innovative storytelling through dance and shadow artistry promises to offer our students and the community an unforgettable experience.”
Created, directed, and owned by Lynne Waggoner-Patton, The Silhouettes were the first runner-up on “America’s Got Talent” (AGT) in 2011 and have been guest artists on NBC’s “AGT Holiday Spectacular,” the “AGT Finale” (2016) and were grateful recipients of Alesha Dixon’s GOLDEN BUZZER on “America’s Got Talent — The Champions.”
Based in Denver, The Silhouettes have traveled the world creating inspirational and powerful shadow performances for non-profit organizations, corporate clients, theatre tours, commercials, television, and film. Using photo overlay where the dancers form a shape and the photograph of the shape appears on the screen, this captivating troupe creates a visual adventure that offers joy, excitement, and unbelievable moments that will make you laugh with joy, experience “goose bump moments” from the passionate performances, and cry as the stories unfold.
