MARTI ROLPH
The actress signs a letter to John Willis, Editor of Theatre World,
discussing how she was unable to attend the most recent Theatre World
party
Autograph letter signed: "Marti Roplh", in black ink, 1 page,
6¼x4½. June 3, 1986. In full: "Dear John, I heard through the
"grapevine" that the party was splendid this year...as usual. My apologies
are sent to you, because I was felled by a stroke of either food poisoning or a
24- hour-flu bug, and was not fit for being a party guest (or anything else for
that matter.) I was very disappointed. Please forgive me for my no-show!
Love". Actress Marti Rolph has appeared in various stage productions
both on and off Broadway. Most notably, she appeared in the original Broadway
production of Follies in 1971, and later appeared Good
News (1974). John A. Willis (1916-2010), active in Theatre World from
the beginning, became its chief editor in 1965, holding that position until
2008. Willis is regarded as one of the foremost theatre and film historians
of the 20th century. While producing (and presenting) the annual Theatre
World Awards, Willis also served on the nominating committee for the Tony
Awards. Theatre World, which received its own Tony for Excellence in Theatre in
2001, continues under chief editor Ben Hodges. Fine condition.
