Really interesting collection of interviews from old vaudevillians who were still living in Times Square. Lots of little anecdotes about stars hidden inside. Doesn’t have a narrative, but the collection itself is so perfect that it’s easy to tie it together in your mind and see the themes yourself. I love that.
