WALTER-FILM004079No binding. Very Good. Fine Art Print Vintage original 23 x 15"" 59 x 38 cm. window card poster USA. Archivally paper-backed with conservation done to address wear in blank right-hand upper side now VERY GOOD. With music by Kurt Weill and text and lyrics by Bertold Brecht this musical play was one of the cornerstone dramatic works of the Weimar Republic -- and it was subsequently banned by the Nazis. It was an unfamiliar work in the US until the debut off-Broadway production with a new English adaptation by Marc Blitzstein The show highlighted Lotte Lenya Kurt Weill's widow in the role of Jenny which she had created in the original Berlin production decades earlier. ""'Marc Blitzstein' said Orson Welles in 1984 'was almost a saint. He was so totally and serenely convinced of the Eden which was waiting for us all on the other side of the Revolution that there was no way of talking politics to him. He didn't care who was in the Senate or what Mr. Roosevelt said -- Roosevelt was just the spokesman for the bourgeoisie! When he came into the room the lights got brighter. He was an engine a rocket directed in one direction which was his opera The Cradle Will Rock -- which he almost believed had only to be performed to start the Revolution.'"" masterworksbroadway Blitzstein is an example of a gay artist who was drawn to the creation of socially relevant music and theatre. Among his most famous works are THE CRADLE WILL ROCK which he created with Orson Welles and REGINA his operatic adaptation of Hellman's THE LITTLE FOXES. At the time of his tragic death he was murdered by sailors whom he met in Martinique he left unfinished an opera about Sacco and Vanzetti. After an initial run of 96 performances after a debut on March 10 1954 the play was revived in September 1955 and experienced a great success with performances running at the Theater de Lys for six years. The show won two Tony Awards on April 1 1956. The absence of any reference to those awards on this poster strongly implies that it is most likely from 1955. This poster is from that revival; I have never seen another. unknown books
