Vaudeville
Vaudeville was a genre of variety entertainment prevalent in the
United States and
Canada from the early 1880s until the early 1930s. Developing from many sources, including
concert saloons,
minstrelsy,
freak shows,
dime museums, and literary
burlesque, vaudeville became one of the most popular types of entertainment in
North America. Each evening's bill of performance was made up of a series of separate, unrelated acts. Types of acts included (among others) musicians (both classical and popular), dancers, comedians, trained animals,
magicians, female and male impersonators,
acrobats, one-act plays or scenes from plays,
athletes, lecturing
celebrities,
minstrels, and short
films.
