329:âFrom 1880 to 1890 burlesque gained considerably in popularity and had developed into a definite form of entertainment, with a first part, olio and afterpiece or burlesque. Most of the shows that were rated as burlesque shows between 1870 and 1880 were partly of the minstrel type, and many contained casts entirely composed of women. Among the shows organized from 1880 to 1890 were the Ida Siddonâs Female Mastodons & Burlesque Co.âSam T.

It was the most popular entertainment in New York during the 1868â1869 theatrical season: "The eccentricities of pantomime and burlesque â with their curious combination of comedy, parody, satire, improvisation, song and dance, variety acts, cross-dressing, extravagant stage effects, risquĂ© jokes and saucy costumes â while familiar enough to British audiences, took New York by storm." Unfortunately, âthe female audiences for burlesque did not last for long. In the summer of 1869 a wave of âanti-burlesque hysteriaâ in the New York press frightened away the middle-class audiences ... and sent the Thompson troupe prematurely packing for a national tourâ. After this untimely closure, backlash against burlesque continued to grow. Thompson's shows were described as a âdisgraceful spectacle of padded legs jiggling and wriggling in the insensate follies and indecencies of the hourâ. The

Counteracting this somatic ailment was a national distraction known as the burlesque show, consisting of a coterie of rough-and-tumble comedians supported by twenty or more chorus girls.
