Broadside 12:L NEWSLETTER OF THE THEATRE LIBRARY ASSOCIATION - - - - - - - - - Volume 12, Number 2 Fall 1984 New Series THE CAFFE ClNO AND ITS LEGACY: OFF-OFF BROADWAY IS FOCUS OF EXHIBITION Richard M. Buck, the Theatre Library Association's tireless and dedicated Secre- tary-Treasurer, has put together an extraor- dinary exhibition detailing the history and heyday of the Caffce Cino, m Qff-Off Broadway playhouse which was the inspir- ation for a new movement in the theatre. The exhibition, which will be on view in the Vincent Astor Gallery of The New York Public Library at Lincoln Center until May 15, follows former TLA board member William Appleton's splendid exhibition on the life and career of composer Richard Rodgers. The Caffe Cino flourished at 31 Cornelia Street in Greenwich Village, New York City, from 1959 to 1968. Beginning with the earliest days when the Cino was a poetry- reading cafe, the exhibition carries the story of the Cino to its end, when after founder Joe Cino's tragic death in 1967, a loyal group of followers tried to continue the tradition. Along the way, the viewer will discover many names and titles that have become landmarks in theatre history: Lanford Wilson, Tom Eyen, John Guare, Sam Shepard, Robert Patrick, Dames at Stewart, Robert Patrick, Robert Heide, Hoffman will discuss the impact of the Sea, This is the Rill Speaking, The White Robert Dahdah, Shirley Stoler, and many Cino on theatre that followed.

Theatre: Faculty Publications, Smith College, Northampton, MA. https://scholarworks.smith.edu/the_facpubs/2 This Article has been accepted for inclusion in Theatre: Faculty Publications by an authorized administrator of Smith ScholarWorks. For more information, please contact [email protected] The following memoir appeared in CAFFE CINO, volume 1, number 1, July 2018, pages 20-22 (double-column). Journal editor, Stephen MacMahon. Volume editor, Daniel Talbott. The editors added my name to the published title, which became "Len Berkman on the Caffe Cino.” Since Caffe Cino was not only theatrical at its core (though not at its outset), since food, folk music, and other communal Village dimensions were infused with its basic existence and impact, I'd like -- in this flash of memoir -- to position the Cino within the magnitude of a Brooklyn teen-age male's experience of the Village at that time (a very different take on the 1950s relationship to the 1960s than what we so often see portrayed as the seemingly bland, conventional, apolitical "Donna Reid" 1950s.) It's so agonized and ironic to me that the ultimately suicidal trajectory of Joe Cino's life fostered what, by contrast, became for me life-saving, soul-saving, and continues in that vein to this day. I never 'hung out' at Caffe Cino, nor at any other singular locale in the Village of the '50s and early '60s.

  • Xerox University Microfilms
    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

    CITY PLANNING COMMISSION August 14, 2019 / Calendar No. 33 N 190534 HIM IN THE MATTER OF a communication dated June 27, 2019, from the Executive Director of the Landmarks Preservation Commission regarding the landmark designation of The Caffe Cino (Block 590, Lot 30), by the Landmarks Preservation Commission on June 18, 2019 (Designation List No. 513/LP-2635), Borough of Manhattan, Community District 2. Pursuant to Section 3020.8(b) of the City Charter, the City Planning Commission shall submit to the City Council a report with respect to the relation of any designation by the Landmarks Preservation Commission, whether of a historic district or a landmark, to the Zoning Resolution, projected public improvements, and any plans for the development, growth, improvement or renewal of the area involved. On June 18, 2019, the Landmarks Preservation Commission (LPC) designated the Caffe Cino, located at 31 Cornelia Street (Block 590, p/o Lot 47) as a City landmark. The landmark site is located on the west side of Cornelia Street between Bleecker and West 4th streets, within Manhattan Community District 2. The Caffe Cino is one of six buildings that the LPC designated as individual landmarks for their historical significance to the LGBT community. On the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall riots and coinciding with World Pride NYC, LPC recognized these sites as places associated with groups and individuals that helped move forward the LGBT civil rights movement by creating political and community support structures and by bringing LGBT cultural expression into the public realm. 31 Cornelia Street, located between Bleecker and West 4th streets in Manhattan, is culturally significant for its association with the Caffe Cino, which occupied the building’s ground-floor commercial space from 1958 to 1968.
