The Original Amateur Hour is the show that started the talent competition craze! Join host Pat Boone for an entertaining glimpse into the long-running series in this 2-DVD set.

DISC 1 features early performances of struggling amateurs who were soon to be stars, like Ann-Margret, Raul Julia, Beverly Sills, Connie Francis, Jerry Vale, Frank Sinatra, and Gladys Knight.

DISC 2 features wild and wacky novelty acts and animal acts as well as memorable performances from one-man bands, musical saw players, and impressionists. See one man play three clarinets at once, a young girl blow in a tuba that's bigger than she is, a one-legged tap dancer, and a chicken that walks through a flaming hoop.

DVD extras include two complete Amateur Hour TV episodes and more.

282 minutes total running time on 2 DVDs.
