Talk:Belasco Theatre

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I merged this article with the David Belasco Theatre article because it was inaccurate. None of Belasco's venues were ever named the "David Belasco"--certainly not the Broadway house that bears his name. Mademoiselle Sabina 06:36, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Marlon Brando

Marlon Brando had his first widely noticed success in this theater, in a production of Maxwell Anderson's "Truckline Cafe" (opening Feb. 27th, 1946), he played the small but crucial role of Sage MacRae. The piece flopped, but the press celebrated Brando as a new genius actor (even before "A Streetcar Named Desire"). Source: Peter Manso: Brando. The Biography, New York: Hyperion, 1994.
