Description:
New York: Limelight Editions, 2000. First Edition, First Printing. Hardcover with Dust Jacket. Fine/Fine. No Flaws or Blemishes but minimal shelf handling; Still Gift Quality. 9.25 inches tall; 427 pages with Chapter Notes, Bibliography and Index. Illustrated with photographs. . Davis (author, lecturer and theater critic) revisits the legendary talents and the often-outrageous impresarios who brought them to Broadway. Beginning with Florenz Ziegfelds's Follies of 1907, he tells how other producers were soon drawn to the revue and how its zaniness and spectacle became funhouse mirrors to the Jazz Age itself. The revues' madness and extravagance were replaced with social satire and political comment in the following decades and, finally, were dimmed by the advent of television.

Description:
New York, N. Y., U.S.A.: Limelight Editions, 2000. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. In its 1920s-'40s heyday, however, "revue" meant sparkling new songs and sketches. Though plotless, the best revues were formed around a unifying theme or principle -- newspaper headlines in As Thousands Cheer, world travel in At Home Abroad. Lavish or intimate, revues were among the most popular and topical entertainments of their time, reflecting current fads, attitudes and events. The great revues boasted songs by the likes of Irving Berlin, Howard Dietz and Arthur Schwartz, sketches by writers such as Moss Hart and George S. Kaufman. They provided a training ground for such famed performers as Al Jolson, Fanny Brice, W.C. Fields, Fred Astaire, Ethel Waters, Clifton Webb, Bea Lillie, Ray Bolger, Bert Lahr, Milton Berle, Imogene Coca, Sid Caesar, Eartha Kitt and Harry Belafonte.In its 1920s-'40s heyday, however, "revue" meant sparkling new songs and sketches.
