Since 1934, Amateur Night at the Apollo, a theater where black performers and patrons were once banned, has served as the golden ticket to a big break for many performers. Each season of Amateur Night features a slate of new musicians, comedians, and artists from all backgrounds looking to win over the capricious Apollo crowd on Wednesday nights.
