This is a rare souvenir program from the Original Broadway production of the Thirteenth (and final) Edition of the musical revue "GEORGE WHITE'S SCANDALS" at the Alvin Theatre in New York City. (The 13th edition of the "Scandals" opened August 28th, 1939 and ran for 120 performances.) ..... This series of revues, produced by White from 1919 through 1939, were given to elaborate show numbers much like the "Ziegfeld Follies", but were less ornate and cumbersome. Their comedy tended to be far more topical and, because White had been a dancer, the productions were fast paced and featured better choreography and music than similar revues ..... The production starred WILLIE & EUGENE HOWARD, BEN BLUE, ELLA LOGAN and ANN MILLER and included COLLETTE LYONS, BILLY RAYES, CRAIG MATHUES, CHRISTINE FORSYTH, SHIRLEY KILDUFF, OLGA GOREY, PRUDENCE HAYES, JUNE CURTIS, KAY BUCKLEY, VICTOR ARDEN and His Orchestra and THE GEORGE WHITE GIRLS ..... CREDITS: Music by SAMMY FAIN ("Hellzapoppin", "Sons o' Fun", "Alive and Kicking", "Flahooley", "Ankles Aweigh", "Christine", "Something More!"); Lyrics by JACK YELLEN; Additional Lyrics by HERB MAGIDSON; Sketches by MATT BROOKS, EDDIE DAVIS and GEORGE WHITE; Sets designed by ALBERT JOHNSON; Costumes designed by CHARLES LeMAIRE; Choreographed by GEORGE WHITE; Dialogue Directed by WILLIAM K. WELLS; Conceived, Produced and Staged by GEORGE WHITE ..... DETAILS: The oversized 16 page program measures 9" X 12" inches and includes extensive text on the twenty year history of "The Scandals", photos and bios of each of the leading actors, individual photos of many of the chorus girls and several pages of production photos .....
