The Library

Haven't fully immersed myself in the incredible collection of scripts, scores, playbills, CDs and magazines at the Goodspeed Musicals library but Klea and I had the chance to run our lines in the Max Showalter Room. Mr.S was an actor /writer who supported the theatre and left them his personal effects when he died.

The handsome young man

he played Vandergelder opposite Betty Grable, Martha Raye, Betsy Palmer and Marilyn Maye

here he is in the "Parade Passes By" number

We didn't get much rehearsing done as we couldn't stop staring at the memorabilia

This lovely ceiling feature is a fake skylight. I fear once the show has opened and Klea and I have time to really explore the library we may never be heard from again.
