Showtime at the Apollo: The Epic Tale of Harlem's Legendary Theater

Showtime at the Apollo: The Epic Tale of Harlem's Legendary Theater

by Ted Fox Author and James Otis Smith Author

A graphic novel history of the Apollo, the legendary African-American theater and performance review that was central to the Harlem Renaissance in New York City. It launched the career of Ella Fitzgerald, among thousands of other artists. Music, theater, and comedy all found a home here when most venues in the US discriminated against Black performers, and the resulting cultural explosion changed this country for the better, forever.
