- Sherman H. Dudley was a pioneer in the world of entertainment. Working his way up from itinerant medicine shows and traveling minstrel shows, Dudley made his greatest success on the stage as an entrepreneur, although he was a more than competent singer, writer, actor, and composer. His "Smart Set" company of performers was well-known throughout the vaudeville circuit, and he himself was best known for a routine in which a mule dressed in overalls would stand next to him as he delivered his monologue, periodically nodding its head, giving the impression that it understood what he was saying. Dudley would establish the first Black vaudeville theatre circuit (S. H. Dudley Theatrical Enterprises)the base of which were several theatres that he owned in and around Washington, D.C.
