Three (3) Stooges "GEORGE WHITE'S SCANDALS" Ella Logan / Ann Miller '39 Playbill

Description: This is a rare playbill from the week of September 25th, 1939 for the Original Broadway production of the Thirteenth (and final) Edition of the musical revue "GEORGE WHITE'S SCANDALS" at the Alvin Theatre in New York City. (The final edition of the "Scandals" opened August 28th, 1939 and ran for 120 performances.) ..... This series of revues, produced by White from 1919 through 1939, were given to elaborate show numbers much like the "Ziegfeld Follies", but were less ornate and cumbersome. Their comedy tended to be far more topical and, because White had been a dancer, the productions were fast paced and featured better choreography and music than similar revues ..... The production starred WILLIE & EUGENE HOWARD, THE THREE STOOGES (Moe & Curly Howard and Larry Fine), BEN BLUE, ELLA LOGAN and ANN MILLER and included COLLETTE LYONS, BILLY RAYES, CRAIG MATHUES, KIM LOO SISTERS, ROSS WYSE, Jr., JACK WILLIAMS, the KNIGHT SISTERS, LOIS ANDREW, BETTY ALLEN, HAROLD WHALEN, HARRY STOCKWELL, MARTHA BURNETT, FRED MANATT, JUNE MANN, CHRISTINE FORSYTHE, VICTOR ARDEN and His Orchestra and THE GEORGE WHITE GIRLS ..... CREDITS: Music by SAMMY FAIN; Lyrics by JACK YELLEN; Additional Lyrics by HERB MAGIDSON; Sketches by MATT BROOKS, EDDIE DAVIS and GEORGE WHITE; Sets designed by ALBERT JOHNSON; Costumes designed by CHARLES LeMAIRE; Choreographed by GEORGE WHITE; Dialogue Directed by WILLIAM K. WELLS; Conceived, Produced and Staged by GEORGE WHITE ..... DETAILS: This 36 page playbill measures 6 3/4" X 9 1/4" inches and includes full production credits, cast list, scenes, list of musical numbers, bios of each of the leading actors and wonderful vintage advertising but with the exception of the front cover, no cast photos ..... CONDITION: With the exception of light soiling to the back cover and minor edge wear, this rare playbill is in excellent condition and will make a wonderful addition to the collection of any musical theatre aficionado or historian. This item will be carefully packaged in a protective, carded sleeve and backed by stiff cardboard.
