The word vaudeville is a’ corruption ot Vaue de Vire, the name of two pic- turesque vallers in the Bocage of Nor- mandy, France. The name was origin- ally applied to a song with words re- Jating to some story of the dy. These songs were first composed by Oliver Basgelin, a fuller living in Vire. They ‘were popular and soon spread all over France, and were called by the name ‘of the pince where Basselin composed them, namely Vaux de Vire. As the erigin of the term was lost sight of it " at last took its present form, vaude- ille, .Vaudeville is now properly used to signify a play in which dialogue is in- terspersed with songs incidentally in- wroduced but forming an important . part of the drawa.
