About Booking Historical Characters

History was the best subject in school, don’t ya think? (P.E. doesn’t count) Science was so complicated and Math had all that problem-solving. History was always just fascinating tales of the people and events that brought us to where we are today. Who doesn’t love a great story? Well now you can bring the history to your event by hiring an Historical Character. From honest Abe to Mark Twain, there are many historical characters to choose from. You’ll forget it’s the 21st century after spending time with these famous people from the past.

Bring our history to life by bringing a live historical character to your next event. GigSalad has a variety of historical characters to offer from Abraham Lincoln and George Washington to Babe Ruth and Davy Crockett, among many others. Historical characters are the perfect choice for a variety of events, such as trade shows, corporate events, school assemblies, educational seminars, or fairs and festivals.

Other characters may provide full shows or acts that can serve as a comedic act or as educational entertainment. Browse through the Historical Characters on GigSalad.
