New York Bijou Theatre – Barbara – 1891

An original theatre programme for Barbara at the Bijou Theatre, New York, dated 27 April 1891, with principal cast including Mabel Amber and Grace Kimball.

The Bijou was one of the many playhouses lining Broadway in the busy theatrical district of 1890s Manhattan.

Nineteenth-century American programmes turn up far less often in the UK, making this clean example an interesting piece of transatlantic theatre memorabilia and a fine companion to British old theatre programmes.
