Vintage 1960s The Sound of Music Westside Civic Light Opera Playbill 

Janet Blair as Maria and John Myhers as Captain George Von Trapp. The Santa Monica Civic Auditorium was built in 1958. It quickly became a hot spot for the best musical acts of the day. The venue’s playlist reads like a timeline of the evolution of the American music scene starting in the 1950’s with Andre Previn, Duke Ellington, Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Lawrence Welk and the Los Angeles Philharmonic playing to capacity crowds. The Civic was also home to the Academy Awards ceremonies from 1961 to 1968. The 3,000-seat venue hosted a variety of concerts throughout the ‘70s, ‘80s, and ‘90s where the likes of Queen, David Bowie, Prince, Bob Dylan, and the Clash graced the stage.

In very good condition. Very minor wear to the covers. Has been well cared for over the years.
