Insert a coin and make your choice of song. Match your mood: soundtracks, folk songs, classical, jazz or Takapartch originals. Each show is different, but you always leave with a smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Human Juke Box was the outgrowth of an eclectic life of performance on streets, in live-houses, on stages and at festivals; an excursion from pantomime and puppetry production; an offshoot of dabbling in drama and dance. Now closing in on a 35th anniversary, expect Takapartch to celebrate with a contented smile. The world will call, and his trumpet refrain will be ready.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.takapartch.com\">https:\/\/www.takapartch.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-6604","artist","type-artist","status-publish","hentry","artistscat-artists019"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wmdf.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artist\/6604","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wmdf.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artist"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wmdf.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/artist"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wmdf.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6604"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
