Jimmy Savo (1895[1] – September 5, 1960) was an American Vaudeville, Broadway, nightclub, film and television performer, comedian, juggler, and mime artist.

Life

Savo began his career as a juggler in amateur contests and went on to the burlesque circuit and then Broadway. In 1938, he originated the role of "Dromio of Syracuse" in The Boys from Syracuse.

Savo also starred in [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0028060/ "Once In A Blue Moon," (1935)] written by Ben Hecht and Charles Macarthur. The film was not a success, costing Paramount pictures $350,000.

In 1942 Isidore Herk and the Shubert brothers co-produced a Broadway show called Wine, Women and Song, starring Jimmy Savo and Margie Hart.

The show was advertised as a combination of vaudeville, burlesque and Broadway revue, and ran for seven weeks.[2]

The revue included striptease, which shocked some of the audiences.[3]

Wine, Women and Song was closed by court order in December 1942.[4]

Savo was the author of two books: Little World, Hello! (1947) and I Bow to the Stones; Memories of a New York Childhood (1963).

He died in Terni, Italy in 1960.
