EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the opening night of the John Street Theatre in New York City on December 7,1767. The line engraving by Samuel Hollyer, created in 1903, beautifully captures the interior of this historic theatre. As we gaze at the image, we are transported to a different era. The grandeur of the theater's architecture is evident with its towering arches and ornate proscenium. Rows upon rows of seats fill the auditorium, awaiting an evening filled with entertainment and drama. The audience depicted in this engraving reflects a snapshot of American life during colonial times. Men dressed in elegant attire sit alongside women adorned with fashionable gowns and fans held delicately in their hands. Their anticipation for what lies ahead can be felt through their eager expressions. On stage, an actress captivates her audience as she performs under the glow of theatrical lighting. This scene represents not only a momentous occasion for New York City but also showcases how live performances have been cherished throughout history. This print serves as a reminder that even after centuries have passed since its opening night, theaters continue to hold a special place within our society. They provide us with an escape from reality and allow us to immerse ourselves in stories that touch our hearts and minds.
