[Comedian Phil] Silvers, incidentally, credits another burlesque comedian, Harry Steppe*, with introducing the phrase “top banana” into show business jargon in 1927 as a synonym for the top comic on the bill. It rose out of a routine, full of doubletalk, in which three comedians tried to share two bananas.
Example of use: “Everybody agrees that Misha is the top banana in the office.” The phrase originated in the burlesque theater, from a very popular comedy skit in which the leading comedian was given a banana after delivering the punch line.
Steppe also claimed to have first used “second banana” to refer to the cast’s number two comic. Comedian Phil Silvers popularized the phrase “Top Banana” when he used it as the title of his Broadway musical and movie.
