About This Item
New York: Faber and Faber, 2005. first edition. hardcover. Book VG+: mild shelf wear else clean, tight, square, unmarked/DJ VG: mild shelf wear/rubbing, NOT clipped. 8vo 328pp. from front flap: "In No Applause--Just Throw Money, writer and modern-day vaudevillian Trav S.D. explores the many ways in which vaudeville's story is the story of show business in America. In documenting the rich history and cultural legacy of our country's only purely indigenous theatrical form (including its influence on everything from the USO to Marilyn Manson), he demonstrates that vaudeville was a showcase for the best and worst America had to offer--a platform for diversity, tolerance, and democracy, darkly tempered by the cash-is-king ethos of market capitalism." #02474.
