	A.L. Erlanger - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Abraham Lincoln Erlanger (May 4, 1859 – March 7, 1930) was an American theatrical producer, director, designer, theatre owner, and a leading figure of the Theatrical Syndicate.
		Their organization known as "Klaw and Erlanger" established systemized booking networks throughout the United States and created a monopoly that controlled every aspect of contracts and bookings until the late 1910s when the Shubert brothers broke their stranglehold on the industry.
		The operations of Klaw and Erlanger produced dozens of Broadway shows during the first three decades of the 20th century, including "Dracula," "Ben-Hur," and "The Jazz Singer." They were responsible for opening the rooftop "Jardin de Paris" where the first Ziegfeld Follies was staged.

	History of Philadelphia's Forrest Theatre
		The Forrest is a quintessential "road house", stripped to the bare walls and used primarily by touring theatre and dance companies.

		The last complete renovation of the house took place in 1997 when extensive redecoration as well as barrier removals and accessibly improvements were made including the addition of a handicapped accessible bathroom.The lobbies were redone in the early 1990s by famous theatrical scenic designer Oliver Smith.

		After the hotel was constructed, the theater was leased to Buffalo born Abraham Lincoln Erlanger (1860-1930) who gave his name to the theater.
		Erlanger's heartlessness eventually opened the way to his own destruction.
		When theater owner Sam Shubert died in a train wreck, Erlanger refused to abide by any legal agreements "with a dead man." Sam's outraged brothers Lee and Jacob swore vengeance, and over the next few decades battled the Syndicate into virtual extinction.

	New Amsterdam Theatre
		While it was not unusual to have a small stage on the roof of a theatre, most rooftop stages contained no more than a platform that served as a simple stage and were only useable in warm weather.
		The New Amsterdam had a complete miniature theatre that could be used all year, although it was only used in the summer months.
		Lavishly illustrated, this volume by theatre historian Mary C. Henderson recounts the history of the theatre from its heyday as the home of the Ziegfeld Follies through its years as a movie house and then a decaying unused landmark to its exciting rebirth this year.

	Moon Over Buffalo -- Audition Details
		George and Charlotte Hay are a husband and wife acting team in the Lunt/Fontaine tradition.
		Somewhat past their prime, they continue to eke out an existence playing repertory on the regional theatre circuit.
		George shows up on stage dressed as Cyrano while everyone else is attempting Private Lives; the pregnant young lady's brother is reportedly in the theatre to kill George, and Capra is reportedly in the house--a farcical recipe for disaster.

	WORLD THEATRES
		When motion pictures showed their face, theatre was to take a back seat for a period of time, and then again in the 1950s with the advent of television, theatre would suffer once again, but so did the movies.
		Also many theatres either built as film houses, movie houses, have been changed to legitimate, or vice versa, and I have tried to indicate this wherever possible, with year built, seating capacity (if known) as well as long runs at a particular theatre.
		From 1952-61, the theatre was leased to CBS.

		She gives a strong portrayal of the girl who wants to escape from the madness of the theatre.

	New York Architecture Images- St. James Theater
		The Erlanger Theater was built as a self-monument (on the site of the original Sardi's restaurant) to producer-impressario-entrepeneur Abraham Erlanger who's fortunes waxed then waned with that of the Theatrical Syndicate in which he was a main player.
		Upon Erlanger's death in 1930, control of the theater was assumed by the Astor descendants (who still owned the land underneath the Erlanger and most other theaters west of Broadway), and the name was changed to the St James
		Given some years of data we were unable to find, it is possible that the St James was not in legitimate use from Erlanger's death in 1930 until the Shubert purchase in (?1937?), which would be consistent with that of many other Broadway houses.

		The hit song from the show was “At Long Last Love,” which Porter said he composed after having his legs crushed in a horse-riding accident.
		In live theatre, unlike movies and television, the actors can hear (and often see) you as easily as you can hear and see them.
		If you comment out loud at a live show, or read or eat, you disturb not only other members of the audience but also the people on stage, thus diminishing the performance and, ultimately, your enjoyment of it.
