The Rise and Fall of Vaudeville

Before radio, television, and the internet, Americans packed theaters to see comedians, singers, dancers, acrobats, magicians, animal acts, and just about anything else that could hold an audience’s attention.

For several decades, this fast-moving form of entertainment was one of the biggest businesses in the country.

It created stars, shaped popular culture, and served as a training ground for many of the performers who would later dominate Hollywood.
