Description
The Harlem Globetrotters have been making history for decades. What began as a premier attraction at New York's iconic Savoy Ballroom in the '20s has grown into a nationally recognized entertainment force, whose triad of sport, theater and comedy has entertained crowds for nearly 100 years. Before the NBA began fielding African-American players in the '50s, the all-black Globetrotters made a name for themselves defeating the world champion Minneapolis Lakers--now the L.A. Lakers--in 1948. After playing more than 26,000 exhibition games, the team boasts an unparalleled legacy in the history of U.S. athletics. Shows run through Jan 21.
