Title |
Flesh and Blood Theatre Boom |
Abstract/Description |
MORE than 60,000 people are packing Sydney’s five legitimate theatres every week. This is no attendance record. In the early 1920’s Sydney had more than a dozen flesh-and-blood houses and people had the theatregoing habit ingrained as thoroughly as today they have the cinema habit. Five flesh-and-blood houses is few enough for the second biggest white city in the
Empire, but it is the greatest number Sydney has had in 20 years. [includes many photos of theatres and performers] |
