Ephemera Collection Finding Aid EPHEMERA COLLECTION FINDING AID Tivoli Theatres Performing Arts Programs and Ephemera (PROMPT) Australian Collection Development The Tivoli was established by English music hall comedian Harry Rickards in 1893, following the success of his ʺNew Tivoli Minstrel and Grand Specialty Companyʺ(Sydney, 1892), and grew to be the major outlet for variety theatre and vaudeville in Australia for over 70 years. “The Tiv” operated under a range of names with the shows managed and produced variously by Harry Rickards, H.D. McIntosh, H.G. Musgrove, Connors & Paul, Frank Neil, Wallace R. Parnell, Bruce Carroll and David N. Martin. The Tivoli Circuit grew to include Melbourne, Adelaide, Brisbane and Perth by the turn of the century, promoting a broad spectrum of both local and international vaudeville acts including comedians, dancers, acrobats, ventriloquists, and scantily‐clad chorus girls who where colloquially known as the “Tivoli Tappers”. This list includes Tivoli vaudeville circuit shows as well as performances at the Tivoli theatres (i.e. venue hire arrangements). Content Printed materials in the PROMPT collection include programs and printed ephemera such as brochures, leaflets, tickets, etc. Theatre programs are taken as the prime documentary evidence of a performance. The list is based on imperfect holdings, and is updated as gaps in the Library’s holdings are filled. Unless otherwise stated, all entries are based on published programs in the PROMPT collection.

Many of Australia’s greatest radio serials were produced during the 1940s. Among those listed in this guide are the Sunday night one-hour plays - The Lux Radio Theatre and The Macquarie Radio Theatre (becoming the Caltex Theatre after 1947); the many Jack Davey Shows, and The Bob Dyer Show; the Colgate Palmolive variety extravaganzas, headed by Calling the Stars, The Youth Show and McCackie Mansion, which starred the outrageously funny Mo (Roy Rene). Fine drama programs produced in Sydney in the 1940s included The Library of the Air and Max Afford's serial Hagen's Circus. Among the comedy programs listed from this decade are the George Wallace Shows, and Mrs 'Obbs with its hilariously garbled language.

  • Keith Connolly
    KEITH CONNOLLY (1897-1961) Keith Connolly performed with his parents' variety troupe from age seven and while in his teens was a member of the Young Australia League. In 1916 he enlisted with the A.I.F. and went on to serve with the Mining Corps. After returning home in 1919 he and his sister Gladys Shaw toured with such troupes as the Royal Strollers (1919) and Nat Phillips' Stiffy and Mo Company (1921-25) before forming Keith's Syncopating Jesters (1925-27). Connolly's career, which continued well into the 1950s, included engagements with George Wallace (1930), Nat Phillip's Whirligigs, Fullers All-American Revue Co (including New Zealand, 1939) and in companies featuring Roy Rene, Stud Foley, Nellie Kolle and his wife, Elsie Hosking. 1897-1918 Keith Connolly’s earliest engagements earned him enthusiastic reviews: ….absolutely the youngest character comedian on the vaudeville stage, 'Master Keith' (who is only 8 years of age)…gives remarkable imitations of the leading English and American character comedians such as Little Tich, Dan Leno etc.…1 The Sydney Daily Telegraph in speaking of this item says: - 'His songs and imitations, as well as his comic make-up, kept the audience in roars of laughter, and he was recalled again and again. We have listened to many adult comedians and have enjoyed their performances, but the extreme youth of this clever performer, coupled with his marvellous power of imitation, at once captivated all hearts.'2 Keith Warrington Connolly's father was Gerald Shaw (aka Harry Thomson) an enthusiastic basso and theatrical manager with an early interest in moving pictures.

  • Artists, Managers and Employees
    APPENDIX A HARRY CLAY'S VAUDEVILLE COMPANY SURVEY OF ARTISTS, MANAGERS, PARTNERS AND EMPLOYEES: 1901-1929 NB: An updated and revised version of this Appendix is presented in Clay Djubal's 2005 Ph D thesis "What Oh Tonight" (see Appendix H). That version includes several hundred new entries. The list is also regularly updated in the Australian Variety Theatre Archive. See: http://ozvta.com/research-lists/ (or at Pandora: http://nla.gov.au/nla.arc-143747) The following list has been compiled during the course of research undertaken for this dissertation. While every attempt has been made to locate the names and information regarding artists and employees engaged by Harry Clay’s organisation during the period 1901 to 1929, it must be conceded that the greater portion of this list has been compiled from available sources between the years 1914 and 1925. As discussed in Chapter Three of this thesis, there was little in the way of advertising or magazine reviews concerning Harry Clay’s operations during the years 1901-1913, other than in relation to the NSW/Qld tours reported in various country newspapers. While these sources have provided the survey with data concerning the tours, it is likely that many more artists were employed during those years. This situation, too, has caused some confusion as to whether several leading entertainers during this period, artists such as Jim Gerald and Clyde Cook,1 for example, were or were not associated with Clay's. Research for this thesis has so far failed to locate any definite primary evidence to support the claims that these two performers were engaged by Clay, and hence they have been left out of the survey.

  • Ealing Studios and the Ealing Comedies: the Tip of the Iceberg
    Ealing Studios and the Ealing Comedies: the Tip of the Iceberg ROBERT WINTER* In lecture form this paper was illustrated with video clips from Ealing films. These are noted below in boxes in the text. My subject is the legendary Ealing Studios comedies. But the comedies were only the tip of the iceberg. To show this I will give a sketch of the film industry leading to Ealing' s success, and of the part played by Sir Michael Balcon over 25 years.! Today, by touching a button or flicking a switch, we can see our values, styles, misdemeanours, the romance of the past and present-and, with imagination, a vision of the" future. Now, there are new technologies, of morphing, foreground overlays, computerised sets, electronic models. These technologies affect enormously our ability to give currency to our creative impulses and credibility to what we do. They change the way films can be produced and, importantly, they change the level of costs for production. During the early 'talkie' period there many artistic and technical difficulties. For example, artists had to use deep pan make-up to' compensate for the high levels of carbon arc lighting required by lower film speeds. The camera had to be put into a soundproof booth when shooting back projection for car travelling sequences. * Robert Winter has been associated with the film and television industries since he appeared in three Gracie Fields films in the mid-1930s. He joined Ealing Studios as an associate editor in 1942 and worked there on more than twenty features. After working with other studios he became a founding member of Yorkshire Television in 1967.
