Sobre este artículo
[Madison, Wisconsin: Likely Bied Printing Co., 1920]. [16]pp. Program. 6½ x 4 inches. Illustrated wrappers; stapled. Ownership inscription on upper cover. Fine.
1920 program for a "Vodvil" or vaudeville show produced at the University of Wisconsin-Madison to raise funds to build the campus' Union Memorial Building.
The cover art by Fred Sperry (Class of 1921) depicts an actor in minstrel-show blackface slouching uneasily in a theatrical spotlight. Numerous ads for Madison business are seen throughout the program.
The 12-act vaudeville show included musical numbers, comedy, and short plays or skits. The musical finale, "Melody Garden," was directed and costumed by women and was performed by an all-female cast of singers and dancers. One of their numbers, "Dark Town Syncopation," appears to have been a minstrel show act. It was followed by a "Danse Bizarre".
Ref. The Badger, Assembled and Published by the Class of 1922 of the University of Wisconsin at Madison (Madison,1921).
