The Philadelphia Mummers are costumed individuals and families who celebrate by "strutting" and performing on New Year's Day. For many; mummery is also a way of life. The first official parade occurred in 1901; but it is an evolving tradition; reflecting both the challenges and opportunities of changing times. Philadelphia Mummers tells the story of modern-day mummery and the expressions of art; freedom; and celebration of thousands of people who come together in the working-class spirit of America's oldest annual folk parade.
