A legend of black American music, this burlesque theatre built in 1913 was initially reserved for whites. In the 1930s, the Apollo became the performance centre for artists and black audiences. Billie Holiday, Duke Ellington, Dizzie Gillespy, Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, Marvin Gaye, etc.: all the greats have followed one another. The "amateur nights", reserved for beginner artists, saw the debut of James Brown or the Jackson Five. The principle is simple: at the end of each performance, the audience applauds or bows according to their appreciation.
