Nice to see Eubie Blake in the New York Times! John McWhorter uses the recent release of When Broadway Was Black by Caseen Gaines for a good think piece on Shuffle Along: “The Black Musical That May Have Inspired Gershwin.”
Hi Jane! There was something called shuffle along, but it wasn’t exactly the show. “The new show explores the backstory of the 1921 musical Shuffle Along as it follows the creative team and performers who brought it to life.”
Yes, it is incredible, or incroyable. Wasn't Shuffle Along on Broadway sometime in this century, but I missed it.
