"The opening scene, a dream sequence prior to the vaudeville routines which follow, is what makes this film famous. In it Keaton plays everyone in a theatre simultaneously (through multiple exposures).
He is the band leader, all its members, the dancers on the stage and everyone in the audience." Directed and written by Edward F. Cline and Buster Keaton, 1921. This film is in public domain and available at Archive.org
