pasando por la revista, el sainete, la comedia musical

[brightlight]

How can I translate "la revista" in this context please?

"Desde la ópera cómica romántica a las operetas más ligeras y bufas, pasando por la revista, el sainete, la comedia musical o el drama lírico, las fuentes de este inmenso patrimonio se conservan en el Centro de Documentación"

I don't think it means a review does it?

Thanks for any help.

The idea may be what is sometimes called a revue: "a light theatrical entertainment consisting of a series of short sketches, songs, and dances, typically dealing satirically with topical issues."

It is related to Spanish opera, and is called a "Revista Musical Española" and also refers to "sainete" which is a sort of farce, so it may be possible Newt. Thank you

Thank you gotasdeoro, but in specialised terminology, they have used the original French word "revue," which is in other texts, as
I searched online after Newt gave me the word, and as this seems to be related to promoting such music for those who know something
about it, I think I should use "revue."

P.S.: It seems the English spelling (review) was in use till 1907: Revue - Wikipedia
