Once upon a time in this great land of ours, before there was an internet or a television set or even a radio, entertainment came to town live and in person in the form of vaudeville. Mostly it was light entertainment, a bill of acts based on variety. But hidden amidst the laughter and applause was a seed of genius that would shape the world of comedy forever.
In the early 20th century, vaudeville was a training ground for mass media entertainers like Jack Benny, Judy Garland, and the Marx Brothers, who zigzagged across the country hoping to make it to Broadway or Hollywood.
"Ted Healy and His Stooges" was one of those acts.
The act was simple: Healy would try to talk to the audience, being charming and amusing, but he would be interrupted by a couple of obnoxious simpletons - Moses and Samuel Horwitz, later known as Moe and Shemp Howard, according to the official Three Stooges bio.
