Morgan-Ellis brings the era of movie palaces to life. She presents the origins of theater sing-alongs in the prewar community singing movement, describes the components of a sing-along, explores the styles of several organists, and assesses the aftermath of sound technology, including the sing-along films and children’s matinees of the 1930s.
