Description: I'm currently listing a large number of playbills from out-of-town tryouts prior to the Broadway runs. Many are from early performances when revisions were common and include song titles that were cut before opening in New York ....... This is a rare September 25th, 1954 program (playbill) from the one-week, Pre-Broadway engagement of the RICHARD RODGERS and LORENZ HART musical comedy "ON YOUR TOES" at the Shubert Theatre in New Haven, Connecticut. (The revival would open October 11th, 1954 at the Forty-Sixth Street Theatre in New York City and close after only 64 performances.) ..... The musical starred VERA ZORINA and BOBBY VAN and featured ELAINE STRITCH, BEN ASTAR, KAY COULTER, JOSHUA SHELLEY, NICOLAS ORLOFF, JACK WILLIAMS, PATRICIA WILKES, NATHANIEL FREY and GEORGE CHURCH ..... CREDITS: Book by RODGERS & HART and GEORGE ABBOTT; Music by RICHARD RODGERS; Lyrics by LORENZ HART (Rodgers & Hart's collaborations include "Pal Joey", "On Your Toes", "I'd Rather Be Right", "Connecticut Yankee", "Higher & Higher", "The Boys From Syracuse", "By Jupiter", "Chee-Chee", "Simple Simon", "I Married an Angel" and "Jumbo"); Choreographed by GEORGE BALANCHINE; Sets designed by OLIVER SMITH; Costumes designed by IRENE SHARAFF; Produced and Directed by GEORGE ABBOTT ..... DETAILS: The four page playbill measures 6" X 9" inches, is printed on a light brown newsprint stock and includes full production credits, cast list, synopsis of scenes and list of musical numbers, but no cast photos or bios. The additional two pages are an advertisement for Chamberlain's Furniture in New Haven .....
