Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. George White''s Scandals were a long-running string of Broadway revues produced by George White that ran from 1919-1939, modelled after the Ziegfeld Follies. The "Scandals" launched the careers of many entertainers, including W.C. Fields, the Three Stooges, Ray Bolger, Helen Morgan, Ethel Merman, Ann Miller, Bert Lahr, and Rudy Vallée. Louise Brooks and Eleanor Powell got their show business start as lavishly dressed chorus girls strutting to the "Scandal Walk". Much of George Gershwin''s early work appeared in the 1920-24 editions of Scandals. George White''s Scandals is also the name of several movies set within the Scandals, all of which focus primarily on the show''s acts, with a thin backstage plot stringing them all together. The best known of these was 1934''s George White''s Scandals written by Jack Yellen, which marked the film debut of Alice Fay
