Dimly remembered from 20-some years ago, a PBS documentary about Vaudeville. I thought Ken Burns might have done it, it was certainly in his style. They interviewed a bunch of octogenerian Borscht Belt comics, but also one of the Wayans brothers. SNL did a parody of it, featuring Nathan Lane. Does anybody else remember this?
Perhaps this one from “American Masters” : Vaudeville | About Vaudeville | American Masters | PBS
Funny you should mention it, as I watched it the other day: VAUDEVILLE - YouTube
That’s it, thanks!
Great. Glad to help
