| Penner as he appeared in "Honeymoon Cruise," a Paramount-Publix revue |
This is just a brief intro essay. I plan to draft a more complete one soon!
Joe Penner appeared in a variety of stage shows, beginning with the Mutual Wheel burlesque circuit in the early 1920s. In
the late 1920s, he graduated to vaudeville (for Paramount-Publix) and the New York stage, where he was cast in the 1925 edition
of the "Greenwich Village Follies." He also appeared on Broadway in Romberg and Hammerstein's East Wind, which opened
(and closed after eleven performances) in 1931.
