The late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries saw an explosion in the number and variety of dance acts, as vaudeville, by one account, employed more than 15,000 performers traveling across the U.S. to play in 1,000 theaters. The acts included singers, actors, comedians, magicians, ventriloquists, and, of course, dancers. Some dancers, like the Spanish dancer Carmencita, became synonymous with a particular style; others adopted whatever fad was in fashion, like skirt dancing; still others developed compelling back stories and personas to match. Our latest coloring book pays homage to these performers and their versatility, adaptability, and resilience—qualities we have all needed this past year.
