Stellar Shows presents a Wicked Harem / Garrett Wear production: "Recreating the Bostonia Ballroom."Fans of Western swing, vintage venues and country dancing are going to love this one! We are re-creating the original Bostonia Ballroom — a hot-spot for western swing music in El Cajon a half-century ago — where some of the greatest names in country and western music came to play. On regular rotation were touring acts such as Bob Wills, Patsy Cline and Ray Price. Celebrities included Hank Williams, Merle Travis and Willie Nelson. Lefty Frizzell, Spade Cooley and Carl Perkins were among many top artists to play the storied venue during the Golden Years of California Country. Hundreds of bands performed nearly every day for decades, with as many as 1,500 patrons. With that history in mind, we are re-creating the vintage Bostonia vibe - and adding an outdoor festival as well. Featuring three hot bands performing all evening, and a sizable dance floor, the Bostonia Ballroom will be swinging once again.
