Performance"
Vaudeville, an American form of a variety show, started to become popular in the late 1800s as workers began to have more free time and income. Appealing to the emerging middle-class, the material was written for appealed to women and children, and thus drew an audience from shoppers in New York. As a display of elegance and success, theatres were constructed with arches, stained glass windows, and carved details to resemble palaces, thus attracting visitors. “The Roxy” is a fine example of this style, with the gold domed ticket booth offering shows for 5 cents.
