Wraps. Zustand: Good. 12 pages, plus covers. Illustrations (some color inside). This production was staged and directed by Richard Barstow. A rare item of Phyllis McGuire stage and musical career. Annie Get Your Gun is a musical with lyrics and music by Irving Berlin and a book by Dorothy Fields and her brother Herbert Fields. The story is a fictionalized version of the life of Annie Oakley (18601926), a sharpshooter who starred in Buffalo Bill's Wild West, and her romance with sharpshooter Frank E. Butler (18471926). Songs that became hits include "There's No Business Like Show Business", "Doin' What Comes Natur'lly", "You Can't Get a Man with a Gun", "They Say It's Wonderful", and "Anything You Can Do (I Can Do Better)". The principal performers were:Phyllis McGuire, Walter Farrell, Lulu Bates, Ned Wertimer, Edgar Daniels, Robert Bernard, Cherry Davis, Gene Foote, and Daniel Keyes. This program includes The History of the Show. With narratives on the producers, director, choreographer, musical director, and production designer, there is a synopsis of the show. The last page and inside the back cover are photographs of the General Manager, Lighting Director, and a large ensemble cast. This production toured: Valley Forge Music Fair, Devon, Pa; Camden County Music Fair, Haddonfield, NJ; Westbury Music Fair, Westbury, L.I.; Storrowton Music Fair, West Springfield, Mass.; and Painters Mill Music Fair, Owings Mills, Md. Ms. McGuire, with her older sisters Christine and Dorothy, shot to success overnight after winning the televised "Arthur Godfrey Talent Scouts" contest in 1952. Over the next 15 years, they were one of the nation's most popular vocal groups, singing on the television variety shows of Ed Sullivan, Milton Berle, Andy Williams and Red Skelton, on nightclub circuits across the country and on records that sold millions. The sisters epitomized a 1950s sensibility that held up a standard of unreal perfection, wearing identical coifs, dresses and smiles, moving with synchronized precision and blending voices in wholesome songs for simpler times. Their music, like that of Perry Como, Patti Page and other stars who appealed to white, middle-class audiences, contrasted starkly with the rock 'n' roll craze that was taking the world by storm in the mid-to-late '50s. In 1965, as the trio's popularity began to fade, The McGuire Sisters retired from public appearances in 1968, Christine and Dorothy to raise families, Phyllis to continue as a soloist. She appeared regularly in Las Vegas, where she lived for the rest of her life in a mansion with a swan moat and a replica of the Eiffel Tower rising through the roof. In 1985, the sisters reunited for a comeback and performed for almost two decades at casinos and clubs in Las Vegas, Atlantic City and elsewhere. They sang their own hits, 1950s pop hits and Broadway show tunes, and Phyllis did impersonations of Peggy Lee, Judy Garland, Pearl Bailey and Ethel Merman.
