The above piece comes from Henning admirer Glen Henry and is a real rare piece of Broadway history. It’s not often that you find a production sketch from the original version of “The Magic Show” at a small store in Ocean Grove, New Jersey. But that, my friends, is exactly what happened. How it ended up there is a mystery.
I’ve been unlucky in finding out the name of the specific designer who drew this. So, if anyone out there knows please drop me line.
UPDATE: The Set Designer was David Chapman
Special Thanks to Glen Henry
