Скачать или смотреть SID CAESAR: A Streetcar Named (YOUR SHOW OF SHOWS, Apr 5, 1952)

Isaac Sidney "Sid" Caesar (September 8, 1922 – February 12, 2014) was an American comic actor and writer, best known for the pioneering 1950s live television series Your Show of Shows, a 90-minute weekly show watched by 60 million people and its successor, Caesar's Hour, both of which influenced later generations of comedians. He also acted in movies.

Caesar was considered a "sketch comic" and actor, as opposed to a stand-up comedian. He also relied more on body language, accents, and facial contortions than simply dialogue. Unlike the slapstick comedy, which was standard on TV, his style was considered "avant garde" in the 1950s. He conjured up ideas and scene and used writers to flesh out the concept and create the dialogue.

A pitch perfect send up of "A Streetcar Named Desire", with Sid Caesar playing Brando's Stanley Kowalski and Imogene Coca playing Vivien Leigh's Blanche Dubois. Your Show of Shows is a live 90-minute variety show that was broadcast weekly in the United States on NBC from February 25, 1950, through June 5, 1954, featuring Sid Caesar and Imogene Coca. Other featured performers were Carl Reiner, Howard Morris, Bill Hayes, Judy Johnson, The Hamilton Trio and the soprano Marguerite Piazza. José Ferrer made several guest appearances on the series.

The 90-minute live series was produced by Sylvester "Pat" Weaver and directed by Max Liebman, who had been producing musical revues at the Tamiment resort in the Pocono Mountains for many years prior. Caesar, Coca, and Liebman had worked on Admiral Broadway Revue from January to June 1949. The series originated as the second half of the two-hour umbrella show, Saturday Night Review,[3] with the first portion hosted by comedian Jack Carter in Chicago, Illinois,[4] and the remainder telecast from the since-demolished International Theatre (also known as the Park Theatre) at 5 Columbus Circle and the Century Theater in Manhattan, New York City.[5] The Chicago portion was dropped at the end of the 1950-51 season, and the series became the 90-minute Your Show of Shows.
