  1. Vaudeville (song)

    A vaudeville is a France French satire satirical poem or song born of the 17th and 18th centuries. Its name is lent to the French theatre theatrical entertainment com die en vaudeville of the 19th and 20th century. From these vaudeville took its name. The earliest vaudeville was the vau de vire , a Normandy Norman song of the 15th century, named after the valley of Vire . During the 16th century emerged a style in urban France called the voix de ville city voice , whose name may have been a pun on vau de vire , and which was also satirical.
