P.T. 巴纳姆《奋斗与胜利》· Struggles and Triumphs · 领导

By degrees the character of the stage performances was changed. The transient attractions of the Museum were constantly diversified, and educated dogs, industrious fleas, automatons, jugglers, ventriloquists, living statuary, tableaux, gipsies, Albinoes, fat boys, giants, dwarfs, rope-dancers, live “Yankees,” pantomime, instrumental music, singing and dancing in great variety, dioramas, panoramas, models of Niagara, Dublin, Paris, and Jerusalem; Hannington’s dioramas of the Creation, the Deluge, Fairy Grotto, Storm at Sea; the first English Punch and Judy in this country, Italian Fantoccini, mechanical figures, fancy glass-blowing, knitting machines and other triumphs in the mechanical arts; dissolving views, American Indians, who enacted their warlike and religious ceremonies on the stage,--these, among others, were all exceedingly successful.

白话

巴纳姆的博物馆舞台表演逐渐变了样:不再只靠固定节目,而是不断换新花样。他列举了各种吸引人的项目——会表演的狗、勤劳的跳蚤、自动机械人、杂耍、口技、活人雕塑、舞台造型、吉普赛人、白化病人、胖男孩、巨人、侏儒、走绳索的、活“洋基佬”、哑剧、器乐、歌舞、透视画、全景画、尼亚加拉和巴黎等地的模型,还有各种机械奇观、美国印第安人的仪式表演等,全都大获成功。核心是:用多样化、常换常新的内容留住观众。做法是不断引入新奇项目,让每次来都有新鲜感。取舍是:要持续投入成本和精力去搜罗新节目,但能换来回头客和口碑。
