Al Jolson - Broadway

From his first appearance on a stage when still in knee pants, until his final performance for an audience just days before his death, Al Jolson was at his best before a live audience. Although we have filmed performances, all who saw him in life agree that they are but a pale shadow of the Jolson on stage.

Here is a look at Al Jolson's Broadway shows, highlighting the New York run of these shows. We plan to add details to all of the shows, stop by and see what's new!
