you’ll think you’re in an episode of the andy griffith show when you meet our
Mayberry Tribute Artists
Tribute Artist is the term used to describe people who dress as characters from The Andy Griffith Show. They’re not impersonators in that they don’t try to exactly match their characters voice, costume and actions. But they do work hard to create the illusion that you’re actually interacting with their character. Mayberry Comes to Scottsburg is fortunate to have a large group of nationally known Tribute Artists in attendance. These wonderful performers will make you feel that you’re experiencing an episode of The Andy Griffith Show. They’ll be available for pictures, autographs, and will share a variety show that will include recreations of some favorite scenes straight from Mayberry.
