Description
From scantily clad women to impassioned suffragist speeches
Virginia City boomed in the 19th century, with thousands coming to try their luck in the mines, and the entertainment industry boomed with it. Piper's Opera House became one of the most well-known theaters in America, attracting actors from both coasts for lauded performances. The Alhambra Theater took a different approach, advertising acts with women in scanty clothing to bored, restless miners. The vibrant scene drew in big names, like William Cody -- better known as Buffalo Bill -- and Mark Twain.
Author Carolyn Grattan Eichin takes a deep dive into the history of Virginia City's theaters and the stars of the day.
