Talk:Burlesque (genre)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Someone threw this page together, although I am not sure what it adds to the Travesty article. Also, it seems to miss some of the good information in the Burlesque article about the history of Burlesque. -- Ssilvers 17:59, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
Yeah, someone with more time than me should spend some real time on either fleshing (pun intended) this out or combining the two pages in a way that makes sense. Just going through all the links that inappropriately point to the other article is more work than I can handle. I'd be careful not to conflate "travesty" and "burlesque" though. In literary circles, the two are often used with very dissimilar meanings. 67.103.5.26 22:55, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
And what about Burlesque/Burleske as a musical genre? Bach, Telemann, Richard Strauss, etc. all wrote pieces that they characterized or actually called "burlesques"... 204.152.13.192 18:57, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
