Vaudeville: The Weird and Wonderful Dreamscape of Dance and Song

Vaudeville is dead. But, not really.

Think of late-night sketch comedy shows, especially Saturday Night Live. Think of competition shows that feature daring and amazing stunts. Think of the dancing-girl shows that took hold in the Old West and never left America. Think of buskers on the streets of New Orleans. Think of mimes of the streets of New York.
