Rank Ladies: Gender and Cultural Hierarchy in American Vaudeville (Gender and American Culture)

by M. Alison Kibler (Author)

Synopsis

A study of women in vaudeville. It reveals how female performers, patrons and workers shaped the rise and fall of the most popular live entertainment at the turn of the century. Once a sign of vaudeville's refinement, Kibler says, women became associated with the decay of vaudeville.
