Book excerpt: Excerpt from The First One Hundred Noted Men and Women of the Screen Then Miss Allison made her entry into the moving picture field, her initial venture being with W. H. Crane in David Harum, a Famous Players Production, after which she was engaged by the American Mutual Productions Corporation to co-star with Harold Lockwood. The success of this combination was marked and a more popular team has seldom, if ever, appeared, in pictures. At the close of her first year's work on the screen, Miss Allison signed a contract to co-star with Harold Lockwood under the Metro banner. They did such plays as The River of Romance, Pidgin Island, The Come Back, Mister 44 and Big Tremaine. At the beginning of the following year, Miss Allison's marked ability found recognition and Metro engaged her as a star in her own right. Since then she has scored a series of successes in refreshing, wholesome comedy-dramas like The Win ning of Beatrice, In for Thirty Days and Peggy Does Her Darndest. This last production was pronounced by the critics one of the three best comedies of the year. The first of Miss Allison's Screen Classics, Inc., specials was a picturization of Avery Hopwood's hilarious farce, Fair and Warmer which proved to be not only a tremendous success, but one of the most delightful pictures ever filmed. This was followed by The walk-offs, the Oliver Morosco stage success by Frederick and Fanny Hatton. Her next picture, The Cheater, founded on Henry Arthur Jones' celebrated international stage success Judah, was a decided departure from anything she had done before. Her characterization in this marked her as an actress of unusual ability. She has just completed Are All Men Alike from a story by Arthur Stringer. An adaptation of Mrs. Humphrey Ward's well known book The Marriage of William Ashe, with Miss Allison in the stellar rfile, is now in the making.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gertrude Hoffmann made her name in the early twentieth century as an imitator, copying highbrow performances staged in Europe and popularizing them for a broader American audience. Born in San Francisco, Hoffmann started working as a ballet girl in pantomime spectacles during the Gay Nineties. She performed through the heyday of vaudeville and later taught dancers and choreographed nightclub revues. After her career ended, she reflected on how vaudeville’s history was represented in film and television. Drawn from extensive archival research, Imitation Artist shows how Hoffmann’s life intersected with those of central gures in twentieth-century popular culture and dance, including Florenz Ziegfeld, George M. Cohan, Isadora Duncan, and Ruth St. Denis. Sunny Stalter-Pace discusses the ways in which Hoffmann navigated the complexities of performing gender, race, and national identity at the dawn of contemporary celebrity culture. This book is essential reading for those interested in the history of theater and dance, modernism, women’s history, and copyright.

Download or read book The Shuberts and Their Passing Shows written by Jonas Westover and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-10-04 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Shubert name has been synonymous with Broadway for almost as long as Broadway entertainment itself. With seventeen Broadway theatres including the Ambassador, the Music Box, and the Winter Garden, The Shubert Organization perpetuates brothers Lee and Jacob Shubert's business legacy. In The Shuberts and Their Passing Shows: The Untold Tale of Ziegfeld's Rivals, author Jonas Westover investigates beyond the Shuberts' business empire into their early revues and the centrifugal role they played in developing American theatre as an art form. The Shubert-produced revues, titled Passing Shows, were terrifically popular in the teens and twenties, consistently competing with Florenz Ziegfeld's Follies for the greatest numbers of stars, biggest spectacles, and ultimately the largest audiences. The Shuberts and Their Passing Shows is the first-ever book to unpack the colorful history of the productions, delving into their stars, costumes, stagecraft, and orchestration in unprecedented detail. Providing a fresh and exciting window into American theatrical history, Westover traces the fascinating history of the Shuberts' revue series, presented annually from 1912-1924, and covers more broadly the glorious days of early Broadway. In addition to its compelling history of Broadway's Golden Age, The Shuberts and Their Passing Shows also provides a revisionary argument about the overarching history of the revue. Bolstered by a rich collection of documents in the Shubert Theater Archive, Westover argues against the popular misconception that the Shubert's competitor, producer Florenz Ziegfield - responsible for the better-known Follies - was the sole proprietor of Broadway audiences. As Westover proves, not only were the Passing Shows as popular as the Follies but also a key component in a history of the revue that is vastly more complex than previous scholarship has shown. The Shuberts and Their Passing Shows brings to fruition years of original research and invaluable insights into the gilded formation of present day Broadway.
