Vaudeville is a great comparison. Vaudevillians were generalists. They could dance, sing, play piano, do magic, act, and sometimes do acrobatics, all semicompetently. They didn't have great talent in any one area. Their greatness was their protean flexibility, their ability to take any situation and convert it to good entertainment with a narrative.
