Item description

Vintage MISTER ROBERTS Playbill The Playbill for the Alvin Theatre 6.5" x 9", 32 page original program from the week beginning Monday, October 9, 1950 production of MISTER ROBERTS at the Alvin Theatre, 250 West 52nd Street in New York. Mister Roberts is a 1948 play based on the 1946 Thomas Heggen novel of the same name. The novel began as a collection of short stories about Heggen's experiences aboard USS Rotanin and USS Virgo in the South Pacific during World War II. Broadway producer Leland Hayward acquired the rights for the play and hired Heggen and Joshua Logan for the adaptation. Mister Roberts opened on Broadway at the Alvin Theatre on February 18, 1948, starring Henry Fonda, David Wayne, Robert Keith, and Jocelyn Brando, who replaced Eva Marie Saint before the show opened. Logan's brother-in-law, William Harrigan, played the Captain. The original production also featured Harvey Lembeck, Ralph Meeker, Steven Hill, Lee Van Cleef, and Murray Hamilton. Fonda got out of a Hollywood film contract to star in the Broadway theatre stage production. He won the Tony Award for Best Actor in a Play. The production ran for 1,157 performances. Fonda later reprised his role of Lieutenant Roberts in the 1955 film of the same name. The program is complete and in GOOD -VERY GOOD condition with some overall wear that includes some creases, edge wear and foxing/ spotting on some of the pages. (see pictures)
