About this listen

Welcome to What About Theater?, the show where we explore the stories, the people, and the backstage magic that shaped the world of performance. I’m your host, Reverend Daryl Taylor‑Hazel, and today we’re stepping back into the bustling, boisterous 1890s — a decade when American entertainment reinvented itself.

We’re talking about vaudeville — the variety show that became the heartbeat of a nation.
