Description: This is a rare April 23rd, 1968 "Evergreen Showcard" program (playbill) from the opening weeks of the Original Off-Broadway production of the landmark MART CROWLEY play "THE BOYS IN THE BAND" at Theatre Four in New York City. (The production opened April 14th, 1968 and ran for 1001 performances.) ..... The controversial play was among the first to revolve around gay characters and the motion picture released two years later (with the play's original cast) is often cited as a milestone in the history of "queer cinema". The ensemble cast included KENNETH NELSON as "Michael", PETER WHITE as "Alan", LEONARD FREY as "Harold", CLIFF GORMON as "Emory", FREDERICK COMBS as "Donald", LAURENCE LUCKINBILL as "Hank", KEITH PRENTICE as "Larry", ROBERT LA TOURNEAUX as "Cowboy" and REUBEN GREENE as "Bernard" ..... CREDITS: Book by MART CROWLEY; Sets designed by PETER HARVEY; Directed by ROBERT MOORE; Produced by RICHARD BARR and CHARLES WOODWARD, Jr. ..... DETAILS: The eight page playbill measures 6" X 9" inches and includes full production credits, cast list, synopsis of scenes and bios of each of the actors and members of the creative team, but no cast photos ..... CONDITION: With the exception of light creasing to the top right corner, this rare playbill is in excellent condition and will make a wonderful addition to the collection of any theatre aficionado or historian. This item will be carefully packaged in a protective, carded sleeve and backed by stiff cardboard.
