Pepito and Joanne Website

Please visit my Pepito and Joanne website at www.PepitoAndJoanne.com for the life stories of two great entertainers from the age of vaudeville: Pepito and Joanne Perez.

"Pepito the Spanish Clown" was the most famous clown in the world during the vaudeville era.

Joanne was a well-known dance teacher in Southern California for decades, with her own dance school, the Pepito & Joanne Academy of Dance, in Santa Ana, California.

Together, Pepito and Joanne touched the lives of many children. My website is a tribute to their memory. Please visit my Pepito and Joanne website to read about their life in vaudeville, and contribute your own memories of this wonderful couple.
