June 15, 1936: The Lux Radio Theater aired "Burlesque" that starred by Al Jolson and Ruby Keeler. During their time, Ruby Keeler was a tap dancer who then became a known Broadway star, while Al Jolson was a highly-celebrated popular singer. The starring of the two in this theater play of The Lux Radio Theater was heaven sent not only because of the performance talents of the two but also the fact that off-stage, they were a real couple with an adopted child, though in 1939, Keeler left Jolson. Enjoy the The Lux Radio Theater broadcast from "Burlesque" from June 15, 1936:
