    Extractions: If you had happened upon a small South Austin studio at approximately 7:45 last Friday evening, you would have played witness to an agitated gentleman urging the men in the audience with declining virility to let him insert goat glands into their "personal equipment." "The goat glands act like a battery charger," explained Dr. Brinkley as he gyrated around the stage. "They can make a man the ram what am with every lamb." That's what this weekend's performances of a new musical, Border Radio: A Nuevo Vaudeville Docu mentary Performance, are all about. Thankfully, that's not the only thing they're about.

    Extractions: IN OVER TWO HUNDRED DELIGHTFUL, PHOTOGRAPHS Italian-American theatre sprang to life in New York City shortly after waves of Italian immigrants poured into this country in the 1870s. The mass migration brought both the performers and the audiences necessary for theatrical entertainment. Hungry for recognition, support, and social exchange, the men and women from Italy formed amateur theatrical clubs as one way of satisfying emotional needs. By 1900, the community had produced the major forces that created Italian-American theatre of the ensuing decades. In The Italian-American Immigrant Theatre of New York City, author Emelise Aleandri regenerates the excitement of the stage through striking photographs, programs, and other memorabilia generously loaned by families of the theatre community. She follows the fortunes of the earliest nineteenth-century companies and introduces those that arose in the twentieth century. Within these pages are scenes of comedy, tragedy, vaudeville, and radio, featuring stars such as Mimi Cecchini, Guglielmo Ricciardi, Concetta Arcamone, Antonio Maiori, Rita Berti, Farfariello, and Olga Barbato. Little Italy Book cover In Little Italy , author Emelise Aleandri recreates the aura of a time gone by, in a nostalgic revisiting of the streets and buildings of this neighborhood through striking photographs, documents and other memorabilia generously loaned by families of the community and from archival sources. Dr. Aleandri, a native of Riva del Garda, Italy, is a producer, director, actress, writer and singer. She has a Ph.D. in Theatre from the City University of New York She is also the President of the Metropolitan New York Chapter of the American Italian Historical Association and leads historical walking tours of Little Italy. In this book, she looks at a neighborhood that housed and served newly arrived Italian immigrants almost exclusively, and that is growing smaller and smaller geographically as other new immigrant arrivals occupy the area, thus repeating the pattern of assimilation experienced by the Italians more than a century ago.

    Extractions: Professor Susan Kattwinkel Vaudeville, America’s popular mainstream entertainment before motion pictures, radio and television, will take a high-tech curtain call. Susan Kattwinkel, a theatre professor at the College of Charleston, is involved in a computer modeling production called “Virtual Vaudeville.” Officially known as “A Live Performance Simulation System: Virtual Vaudeville,” the project has been awarded a $900,000 grant from the National Science Foundation. Kattwinkel is part of a team of theatre historians, musicologists, computer scientists, and animators from seven universities that plans, in 2004, to stage a first-of-its-kind internet vaudeville show. “New computer technology does need to be invented for this,” said Kattwinkel. “The idea of putting performance modeling together with a virtual reality environment is new in the way that we want to do it.” Performance modeling involves putting sensors on a person’s body and then digitizing all of the movements so that computer models can be constructed. The technology is now used in athletics to study, for example, a golfer or baseball player’s swing.

The Firesign Theatre staged endless press conferences, and interviews and appeared on many local and National Public Radio affiliates across the country promoting their comeback and cementing their base. Mobile Fidelity released Fighting Clowns with the "Carter" song on CD in 1993, and a double CD set of selected live performances from the 25th Anniversary Tour, Back From The Shadows in 1994. The sales figures of the CDs has caused CBS/Sony to not renew further licensing to Mobile Fidelity with the hope of doing their own reissues. In August of 1995

59. Contra Costa Times | 01/06/2003 | Sketch Comedy Could Be The Next Big Thing
    Noise radio theatre and Kasper Hauser not only packed a couple of hours with laughs,but offered a wide range of styles, from the straightahead vaudeville  
    http://www.bayarea.com/mld/cctimes/entertainment/columnists/pat_craig/4883423.ht
    
    Extractions: If raw talent is any indication, sketch comedy, like stand-up in the late '70s and early '80s, just may be the next big thing. Opening with a quartet of local groups, the San Francisco Sketchfest 2003 showed an elaborate display of comedic fireworks that promised a month full of big-time laughter and the notion that there is plenty available for those who enjoy laughing. Sketch comedy is a hybrid form familiar as death, taxes and heavy traffic to anyone who has watched television over the past half-century. Essentially, each comic bit is a short play, written for laughs and performed with an intensity designed to build giggles into explosions of guffaws. And the four groups that performed in Thursday's opener the Meehan Brothers, Totally False People, White Noise Radio Theatre and Kasper Hauser not only packed a couple of hours with laughs, but offered a wide range of styles, from the straight-ahead vaudeville of the Meehans to the topical humor clad in harlequin suits proffered by Kasper Hauser. The evening was held together by host and stand-up comic Joe Kolcek, who introduced the acts and offered some of his own political hilarity.

    name of Fred Allen, and moved up from vaudeville to Broadway revues, early 1920s;worked on radio, notably Allen's Alley and Texaco Star theatre, from 1932  
    http://www.museum.tv/archives/etv/A/htmlA/allenfred/allenfred.htm
    
    Extractions: ALLEN, FRED U.S. Comedian Fred Allen hated television. Allen was a radio comedian for nearly two decades who, as early as 1936, had a weekly radio audience of about 20 million. When he visited The Jack Benny Show to continue their long running comedy feud, they had the largest audience in the history of radio, only to be later outdone by President Franklin Roosevelt during a Fireside Chat . The writer Herman Wouk said that Allen was the best comic writer in radio. His humor was literate, urbane, intelligent, and contemporary. Allen came to radio from vaudeville where he performed as a juggler. He was primarily self-educated and was extraordinarily well read. Allen began his network radio career in 1932 after working vaudeville and Broadway with such comedy icons as Al Jolson, Ed Wynn, George Jessel, and Jack Benny. This was a time when the United States was in a deep economic depression, and radio in its infancy. In his autobiography Treadmill To Oblivion , Allen wrote that he thought radio should provide complete stories, series of episodes, and comedy situations instead of monotonous unrelated jokes then popular on vaudeville. With this idea in hand, he began his first radio program on NBC called
