Date Sold 9/30/2014 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Window Card Stage Play Poster (WC; measures 14" x 22" [36 x 56 cm]) (Learn More) On the Twentieth Century, the 1978 Harold Prince St. James Theatre Broadway stage play production of the screwball comedy operetta musical ("In a new musical comedy"; "Book and lyrics by Betty Comden and Adolph Green"; "Music by Cy Coleman"; "Based on plays by Ben Hecht, Charles MacArthur and Bruce Millholland") starring Kevin Kline, Imogene Coca, John Cullum, Judy Kaye, and Madeline Kahn. Note that this play was loosely based on the classic movie "Twentieth Century", but that movie had an unusual origin! That classic 1934 Howard Hawks film had been loosely based on the original 1932 play of the same name by Ben Hecht and Charles MacArthur, and Hecht's and MacArthur's play had itself been loosely based on Charles Bruce Millholland's unproduced play about his experiences working for theater producer David Belasco, called "Napoleon of Broadway". The producers of this play used portions of all three sources to create their play! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Nicholas Important Added Info: Note that this poster lists Judy Kaye who replaced Madeline Kahn in April of 1978. Also, note that this is a special "foil" poster, and it is INCREDIBLY difficult to photograph foil posters (and other reflective surfaces), so know that the unevenness in the image we provide is in the photograph, and is NOT in the poster itself.
