Abstract:

In 1904, a theatrical guide listed 39 towns in North Carolina that held opera houses. Piedmont towns such as Greensboro, Charlotte, Salisbury, and Winston-Salem were among the list. In this article, Rulfs surveys the opera houses of the Piedmont through their splendor and decline, looking at trends in productions.
