Biographical / Historical Note Click here to collapse or expand the contents in this section of the finding aid

This collection of programs was amassed by the donor’s parents, Albert and Hilda Biller, through their attendance of numerous theatrical productions from 1936-1982 while on trips to New York City and Stockholm. The bulk of the programs were printed by Playbill, published by The New York Theatre Program Corporation. Playbill was first printed in 1884, and usually included a cast list, song list, as well as cast photos and biographies.

This collection consists of programs (the majority published by Playbill) and souvenir pamphlets documenting plays and musical productions performed in New York City and Stockholm from 1936-1982. Among the shows represented are multiple award winning performances, including Carousel, A Chorus Line, Fiddler on the Roof, Hello, Dolly!, Man of La Mancha, My Fair Lady, The Nutcracker, Porgy and Bess and South Pacific. Also present is a Playbill program from the 1937 production of Tobacco Road autographed by actor Al Biletsky. Many of the programs also include articles describing current events in the theater world, as well as contemporary advertisements for a variety of products, including automobiles, cigarettes and alcoholic beverages. The publications are printed in English, French, German, Italian, Spanish and Swedish languages. The collection also includes programs documenting various operas and ballets performed from the late 1930s until 1979. Among these are performances at the Metropolitan Opera House, The New York City Center, The Federal Theater (in operation as part of the WPA Theater Project at that time) and the Kungliga Teatern in Stockholm.
