 Biographical Note

Edith L. Fechheimer complied a scrapbook of cast lists from theatrical performances and programs from musical performances in New York City and Cincinnati, Ohio from 1899-1902.

 Scope and Contents

The Edith L. Fechheimer Scrapbook of Cast Lists for Theatrical Performances and Programs for Musical Performances in New York City and Cincinnati consists of a single scrapbook that was compiled by Edith L. Fechheimer. The scrapbook contains cast lists for theatrical performances and programs for musical performances, which consists of both clippings and full programs from both New York City and Cincinnati, Ohio. A handwritten annotation accompanies each item in the scrapbook that includes a date and a list of names. Performances include mostly operas, comedies, and concerts along with plays, musicals, and dramas. Some of the shows from New York City were Broadway shows. Most of the cast lists and programs are in English, but there are a few in other languages, including German, French, and Italian. Most cast lists and programs were glued to pages of a bound volume by Fechheimer in the chronological order the performances occurred. Some cast lists and programs were not glued down; these have been moved to individual folders in box 2 and are also stored in chronological order.
