The letter begins: 'My dear Webster Charles Kean has requested me to give him information respecting Theatres in England in which it is probable he may form engagements on his return from America as he wishes his plans to be arranged if possible previous to his departure from the United States so as he may see his way clearly on his arrival in England.' He asks whether it would answer Webster's purpose 'to make any proposal to him'. Kean's 'new Play by Lovel i.e. George William Lovell the Wife's Secret is effective I understand and the Play was written for Kean and Mrs. Kean but the latter I learn is the feature.' Clarke will write to Kean 'in a few days and I shall have much pleasure in making any communication to him you may wish. His list of parts as well as Mrs. Keans is considerably extended sicne their marriage and you can best judge whether this fact may have attraction.' Clarke trusts that 'the Haymarket with its twin sister the Adelphi are prospering' and his wife joins with him 'in best regards to the Managers of each establishment'. He ends with 'the Season's Compliments' and in a postscript thanks him 'for the Observers you send me'.

19085578Havana: Moises V. Codina 1908. Good plus. Seven broadsides each approximately 22 x 7.25 inches plus one double bill measuring about 22 x 15 inches. One broadside printed in red and black. Previously folded. Scattered shallow tears from edges not affecting text with some tape repairs on blank versos. A group of eight playbills spanning eight consecutive days in July 1908 that advertise performances and events at the Gran Teatro Payret in Havana. The theater was built by its namesake Jaoquin Payret in 1877 on a corner across from the Villanueva Railway Station now the Capitolio Nacional de la Habana and initially focused on opera and high-class performing arts to compete directly with other established theaters in the Cuban capital. The building had five floors and a capacity of 2300 but the upper balconies collapsed in 1882 after which the theater changed hands and began to showcase more varied popular offerings.<br /> <br /> These playbills publicize an array of performers including the ballet dancer Millas; a cabaret artist Eline Oreo; a magician and telepath Sidney Richards; Troupe Montrose a group of acrobats an Italian dance troupe Les Casettas; two clowns named Pito and Chocolate; and many others. Notably the programming also includes a heavy rotation of short and feature films such as La Electricidad Liquida 1907; El Inagarrables Pick Pocket 1908; Victima de la Ciencia 1907; En Chine: Voyage sur le Canal Impérial 1908; and Venganza del Dervich 1907. The playbill for Thursday July 16 with its headline and date in red proclaims the debut of Trouppe Merodia a seven-person group of acrobats and cyclists as well as the Cuban premiere of a film titled La Caza de Oso The Bear Hunt.<br /> <br /> The theater was closed by hurricane damage in 1926 but reopened as a cinema in 1935 and in the following years became known as the "Cathedral of Spanish Cinema." The building again fell into disuse and disrepair in the decades following the Cuban Revolution but was restored in 2008. A very interesting group that gives a great sense of day-to-day operations at one of Cuba's most important and historic theaters. Moises V. Codina unknown
1929155506N.p.: N.p. 1929. Collection of ten vintage route cards advertising the showing schedules of five different traveling theatre shows produced by Cincinnati producer George E. Wintz between 1926 and 1929. <br /> <br /> Among the shows represented in this collection are "Ziegfeld Follies" Irving Berlin's "Music Box Revue" "The Vagabond King" "Rio Rita" and "George White's Scandals." The shows apparently toured primarily in the mid-Atlantic and southern United States. Four cards have postmarks on the verso and are addressed to a Charlie North likely a crew or cast member for Wintz's run of "George White's Scandals" from Harry Cook the props master of Wintz's shows. <br /> <br /> Itinerant or traveling theatre shows gained popularity during the early and mid-1920s with commercial genres such as vaudeville and musical revues finding particular success during Prohibition when jazz cabarets speakeasies and nightclubs would stage elaborate shows in order to hide the fact that audiences were actually flocking in to obtain alcohol. <br /> <br /> Cards range from 3.25 x 5.5 inches to 3 x 5 inches. Generally about Near Fine. N.p. unknown
