Musical Revue
A musical revue is a theatrical performance that features a series of songs, dances, and sketches, often centered around a specific theme or concept. Unlike a traditional musical, which has a continuous storyline, a revue is typically a collection of individual pieces that may or may not be connected. These performances often showcase a variety of musical styles and can include both original compositions and popular songs.
Revue performances can be staged in various venues, from small theaters to large concert halls. They often highlight the talents of a diverse cast, including singers, dancers, and comedians. Notable examples of musical revues include The Ziegfeld Follies and Ain't Misbehavin', which celebrate different aspects of culture and entertainment through lively and engaging presentations.
