A valuable source of reference about Popular Theatre before Television. Many once-familiar terms are explained in a straightforward way to those who only know television and rock shows. Included are a wonderful array of photographs of acts, many not published before, and also "Napiers Guide to Theatre before television", which clearly defines Burlesque, Music Hall, Variety and other forms.

"An interesting soft-cover publication that explains many terms to the uninitiated lover of Variety and Circus" (The World's Fair)
