The last music hall in the United Kingdom, located in the East End of London closed it's curtains for the final time today.I guess the U.S equivalent would be vaudeville, yes? Did it die out earlier over there or is it still going in some parts of the States? Here, many theatres were replaced by Bingo Halls, what happened to the buildings there? We also had a 'variety show' television format that was popular until about five years ago although much less so now, do you have something similar?
Seems to me a lot of aspiring musicians, singers, entertainers of all kinds got their breaks and learned their craft in these places......where will they go now, I wonder?
