This list is thanks in part to Theatre History and The Oxford Online Dictionary. There were other sites but most meanings and origins came from these. I have condensed the meanings and listed them as you would find them in the dictionary (minus a few details for brevity) and kept the quotes out. If you would like to know more on the quotes I suggest looking at the Theatre History web page.
