Redacted Signature Instructor in charf;& Redacted Signature Sept ember, 19 50 'For tne department PREFACE In the following thesis the author has attempted to give a general,. and when deemed.essential, a specific picture of the theatre in early day Wichita. By "theatre" is meant a.11 that passed for stage entertainment in the halls and shm1 houses in the city• s infancy, principally during the 70' s and 80 1 s when the city was still very young,: up to the hey-day of the legitimate theatre which reached. its peak in the 90' s and the first ~ decade of the new century. The author has not only tried to give an over- all picture of the theatre in early day Wichita, but has attempted to show that the plays presented in the theatres of Wichita were representative of the plays and stage performances throughout the country. The years included in the research were from 1872 to 1920. There were several factors which governed the choice of these dates. First, in 1872 the city was incorporated, and in that year the first edition of the Wichita Eagle was printed. Second, after 1920 a great change began taking place in the-theatre. There were various reasons for this change.

    WILLIAM A. BRADY: THEATRE ENTREPRENEUR By NEVIS EZELLE HAGLER, JR, A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE COUNCIL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 1975 *J^-J UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 5185 3 1262 08552 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I wish to express rny appreciation to the research staff and director of the Theatre Collection at the Lincoln Center Library of the Performing Arts and to Mr. Louis Rachow, of the Players Club, for their valuable assistance and guidance. Special appreciation is extended to two of the theatre's most gracious actresses, Miss Helen Kayes and Miss Madge Kennedy, for their recollec- tions, assistance, and time. My gratitude is also ex- tended to Dr. Richard L. Green, Dr. Clyde G. Sumpter, Dr. Sidney Homan, and Dr. Norman Markel, for their aid in reading the study and offering valuable criticism, A special note of appreciation is due Dr. L. L. Zimmerman, the chairman of this work, for his encourage- ment, criticism, and, most importantly, for his friendship, PREFACE During his lifetime, William A. Brady was one of the most active and successful producers in the American theatre. Since his death, in 1950, his reputation has faded into relative obscurity. No study of his career has been made, and he is mentioned only briefly and with- out regularity in works dealing with the American theatre of the first half of the twentieth century. This study will examine his life and career as a theatrical producer in order to demonstrate the ways in which Brady's career exemplified certain aspects of the early twentieth century American theatre.
