A '''revue''' is a type of multi-act popular theatrical entertainment that combines music, dance, and sketches. Originating in the early 20th century, revues were a significant form of entertainment in the [[United States]] and [[Europe]], particularly in the [[1920s]] and [[1930s]]. Unlike [[musical theatre]], which typically follows a single narrative, revues are composed of a series of separate, often unrelated acts.
'''Revue''' is a term used to describe a type of [[academic journal]] or publication that is typically multidisciplinary in nature. The term "revue" is derived from the French word for "review" and is often used in the context of scholarly publications that aim to provide comprehensive overviews or critical analyses of specific topics or fields.


==History==
==Overview==
The revue format has its roots in the [[vaudeville]] and [[music hall]] traditions of the late 19th century. Early revues were often satirical, poking fun at contemporary events and public figures. The [[Ziegfeld Follies]], produced by [[Florenz Ziegfeld]], were among the most famous American revues, known for their lavish production values and beautiful showgirls.
A revue is generally characterized by its broad scope, often encompassing a wide range of subjects within a particular discipline or across multiple disciplines. This type of publication is designed to offer readers a thorough understanding of the current state of research, emerging trends, and significant debates within the field.


==Characteristics==
Revue publications can vary significantly in terms of their frequency, with some being published annually, biannually, or quarterly. The content of a revue may include original research articles, review articles, editorials, and sometimes book reviews or commentary pieces.
Revues are characterized by their variety of acts, which can include:
* [[Musical numbers]]
* [[Comedy sketches]]
* [[Dance routines]]
* [[Magic acts]]
* [[Acrobatics]]


The content of a revue is often topical, reflecting current events, trends, and popular culture. This makes revues a dynamic and ever-changing form of entertainment.
==Purpose==
The primary purpose of a revue is to synthesize existing research and provide a platform for scholarly discussion. By compiling and analyzing the latest findings, revues help to identify gaps in the literature, propose new research directions, and facilitate the dissemination of knowledge across different academic communities.


==Notable Revues==
==Types of Revue==
Some of the most famous revues in history include:
Revue publications can be categorized based on their focus and scope:
