Shuffle Along

''Shuffle Along'' is an African-American musical revue with music and lyrics by Noble Sissle and Eubie Blake, and a connecting plot about a mayoral race, written by Flournoy Miller and Aubrey Lyles. The piece premiered on Broadway in 1921, running for 504 performances – an unusually long run during that decade. It launched the careers of Josephine Baker, Adelaide Hall and Paul Robeson, and became such a hit that it caused "curtain time traffic jams" on 63rd Street.〔Kenrick, John, ("History of The Musical Stage, 1920s Part III: Black Musicals" ), musicals101.com, accessed August 22, 2009.〕
==Background==
The four writers were Vaudeville veterans who first met in 1920 at a NAACP benefit that was held in Philadelphia.〔Glass, pp. 176–179〕 After finding a small source of funding, ''Shuffle Along'' toured through New Jersey and Pennsylvania. However, with little funding, it was difficult to pay travel and production expenses, and the cast rarely got paid. When the show came back to New York, about a year later, the production owed $18,000. In the end, however, the show turned a substantial profit.〔
The musical was a big hit with audiences due to its jazzy music styles, which were a modern, edgy contrast to the mainstream song-and-dance styles that audiences had seen on Broadway for two decades. The sixteen-girl chorus line was one of the main reasons why the show was so successful. It also introduced musical hits such as "I'm Just Wild about Harry", "Love Will Find a Way", and "In Honeysuckle Time". The musical boosted the careers of Josephine Baker and Florence Mills, who became "instant stars". The show also contributed to the desegregation of theaters in the 1920s, giving many black actors their first chance to appear on Broadway. Once the show left New York, it toured for three years and was, according to Barbara Glass, the first black musical to play in white theaters across the United States.〔
