BroadwayWorld’s Richard Ridge Presents Theater Poster Art at New York Public Library for the Performing Arts - Bruno Walter Auditorium
Theater posters and window cards broadcast to the public what was playing at a particular theater, and the art depicted in them has its own fascinating history and visual language. Richard Ridge of BroadwayWorld discusses the artistry of these Broadway theater posters and window cards, and highlights the work of Tom Morrow, David Edward Byrd, Robert W. Richards, Hilary Knight, and so many others.

Ridge will be joined by theater poster designers Frank “Fraver” Verlizzo, James McMullan, and Paul Davis plus author Nicholas van Hoogstraten with rare images from his upcoming book Broadway Poster Art.
