Ken Murray's Blackouts was the longest running variety revue in the
history of American theater. The "Blackouts" first opened at the El
Capitan Theater (now the Avalon) on Vine Street in 1942. Murray spent
months assembling a line up of personalities and acts including
comedienne Marie Wilson; dancers the Nicholas Brothers; singer Connie
Russell; and impersonator Roy Davis; patterning the show in a vaudeville
format.
