Note 12 — A TRIBUTE TO FLORENZ ZIEGFELD

Since writing this I am informed that the Winter Garden has changed, at least structurally. But even if the type of show at that house also changes, The Passing Show as a type will be seen elsewhere, so I leave what I have written. In 1913 or 1914 Mr H. K. Moderwell wrote of the worst show in years, “They call it The Passing Show. Let it pass.” Apparently they did.
