Playbill: THE GREAT SOCIETY, 2019 w/ Brian Cox, Richard Thomas, Grantham Coleman

Description

The
sequel
to the Tony-winning ALL THE WAY begins at the next part of Lyndon Baines Johnson's career, covering his Presidency and his
triumphs
and
woes as he deals with civil rights and poverty
, with the worsening war in Vietnam looming over it all. SUCCESSION's Brian Cox plays LBJ with Richard Thomas as VP Hubert Humphrey, Grantham Coleman as Martin Luther King, Jr., and Bryce Pinkham as RFK. Other theater stalwarts such as David Garrison, Marc Kudisch, Barbara Garrick, and Nikkole Salter play a
variety
of parts, so many
that there's a key that came with the Playbill that you can see part of above! Also included is the promo card for the mock election held after every show in the lobby, which was ultimately won by Elizabeth Warren.
Playbills not only have info on the show on the cover--they also usually contain interviews with top stars, directors and playwrights. Some shows, especially Shakespeare and other plays, will include essays by the producers on their authors, histories and design. You can see what else was on Broadway at the time in the back listings section. Even the ads often feature music and movie stars to appeal to the upscale demographics that usually attends the theater.
All Playbills have been carefully stored in a pet-free, smoking-free home. Like new or very good condition, although a few may show signs of aging especially on covers where white parts can yellow slightly and black parts can smear. No tears or missing staples or pages.
All booklets will be shipped first class with a acid-free backboard in a comics-storage bag.. Shipping is free within the U.S. 10% of sales are going to New York Cares, a great charity that is helping us in the city while the entertainment industry is shut down.
