  • Mad Props
    On Episode 4 of MUMHEADS, we're going to discuss the pros and cons of props in the Philadelphia Mummers Parade. Some say there's too much, some say there's not enough.

We'll also take a trip down Mummery Lane to discuss a great long-time Mummer, Mr. Bill Weisser. Tune and get to know the Philadelphia Mummers a little better!
