Nickelodeons offered
cheap and convenient entertainment for urban workers. The flexible
time schedule of nickelodeon shows made it easy for them to attend.
Women and children also made up a substantial portion of the nickelodeon's
audience. Immigrants found no language barrier in the exciting
pantomimes of the moving pictures.
Ladies,
kindly remove your hats!
