1952Best.-Nr. 2088New York: The Living Theatre 1952. First Edition First Printing. Small Quarto 9 1/8 x 6 inches; 230 x 155 mm 16 pages in stapled red wrappers printed on Japanese paper. Program for Paul Goodman's "Faustina" which opened at the Living Theatre on May 251952 starring Julie Bovasso as Faustina. Judith Malina directed and Julian Beck designed sets and costumes. This production was part of the first season at the Living Theatre's first permanent performance space at the Cherry Lane Theatre in Greenwich Village. The program includes a "portrait sketch" of playwright Paul Goodman by Laura Perls; "Notes on a Ritual Tragedy" by Judith Malina; and a full-page drawing by Larry Rivers for "A City Winter and Other Poems" by Frank O'Hara. There are also advertisements from local businesses especially bookstores and cafes; a list of paintings for sale by Julian Beck; and a list of sponsors which included John Cage Jean Cocteau Merce Cunningham Betty Parsons and other luminaries of the art and literary worlds. "Faustina" was an important milestone in Living Theatre history. The play's title refers to the wife of Emperor Marcus Aurelius. At the end of the play Faustina is supposed to step forward and chastise the audience for not leaping on stage and stopping a murder. However Julie Bovasso as Faustina felt this moment was pretentious and told the audience on opening night about her irritation. She quit the production after just a few performances. Stephen J. Bottoms Playing Underground: A Critical History of the 1960s Off-Off-Broadway Movement pages 25-26. Despite the controversy the speech "was the beginning of direct audience confrontation by the Living Theatre a technique used extensively in later productions." Theodore Shank American Alternative Theater pages 8-9. This program is notable for the use of stunning Japanese paper for the wrappers. OCLC shows only three institutional holdings at SUNY/Buffalo Syracuse and Michigan. RARE. CONDITION: Slight toning to the pages and bit of edge wear to the Japanese paper wrappers. A beautiful production. Near Fine. The Living Theatre paperback

1952Best.-Nr. 844Quarto 12 1/4 x 9 1/4 inches; 310 x 230 mm in black cloth titles in gilt to spine in an illustrated dust jacket. SIGNED on the front free end paper by 15 stars of Broadway including Fritzi Scheff Eli Wallach Uta Hagen Maureen Stapleton Blanche Ring Francine Larrimore Leonore Ulric Margaret Phillips Bert Lahr Constance Collier Judith Evelyn Frances Starr Douglas Watson Charles Nolte and Dorothy Gish. The signers are among the 150 stars featured in this heavily illustrated tribute that reaches back to Lillian Russell and Sarah Bernhardt but also includes more recent stars such as Maureen Stapleton Eli Wallach Marlon Brando and Carol Channing. Daniel Blum the author was an authoritative journalist and historian of theatre who published an annual review of the season called Theatre World. Needless to say he knew many of the actors profiled in the book. Especially interesting are the author's comments about the actors. Marlon Brando: "He is a nonconformist and likes to shock people.He dislikes cats interviews shoes and large parties." Maureen Stapleton: "She dislikes spooky movies and books." Beatrice Pearson: "When she is depressed she spends money like a drunken sailor." Charlton Heston: "He is frank genial and outspoken but thinks actors should keep quiet on any other subject but their work." That was the Charlton Heston of 1952. He dabbled in politics later in life. Copies signed by so many of the stars are not often found in the market. Presumably a previous owner obtained the signatures during a book party at Brentano's in 1952. A Publisher's Weekly article about the party is pasted into the book. SCARCE SIGNED. CONDITION: Cloth lightly rubbed article pasted onto verso of front end paper and to title page light toning to end papers. Near Fine in a Very Good dust jacket that has a half-inch chip at the bottom of the front panel where it meets the spine a few small chips on the rear panel some edge wear and soiling.
