Nostalgic, true story of the historic, Denver, Colorado playland and theater that grew along with Denver and her people for more than 100 years (since 1880). Elitch’s meant many things to many people: the Old Orchard Café, dancing at the Trocadero, dining in the garden, Greats of Jazz, two wonderful roller coasters (the renowned ’Twister’ and the ’Wildcat’). Many, many pictures of the family who started it, the subsequent people who lived and worked there and the changes in the grounds and rides over the years. One section covers the Marvelous Trocadero dance room and the many well-known, and not so well-known, bands that played there both for the dancing couples and the radio broadcasts (Colorado’s KFEL). Pictures and stories of the bands and/or leaders include Freddie Martin, Gene Krupa, Guy Lombardo, Benny Goodman (who bombed in Denver prior to going to Los Angeles), Benny Meroff, Harry Cool, Orrin Tucker, Tommy Dorsey, Lawrence Welk, Ray Noble, Bob Crosby, Les Brown, Franke Carle and many more. Cedil B. DeMille called the Elitch Theatre ”one of the cradles of American drama.” Cecil M. DeMille and his brother, William, played here in 1905. George Arliss, Spring Byington, Tyrone Power, and Lewis Stone were some of the cast members. Harold Lloyd, Doug Fairbanks (got his start by scrubbing the stage at Elitch’s for the price of a ticket) and Antoinette Perry (Tony Awards named after her) were Denver kids who got their start there. Baby Doe Tabor’s brother, Peter McCourt, bought into the theater. Fredric March defied manager, Mulvihill, and married his leading lady in 1926 (she was fired because of it) and remained married to her till he died. George Brent got his nose straightened at Mr. Gurtlier’s suggestion and introduced Clark Gable to Mr. Gurtler who thought that young man needed to ”get his ears fixed”. Edward G. Robinson was fired because he didn’t keep up his wardrobe. Grace Kelly spent the summer as a young ingenue with little experience 7″ x 10″ – 100 Pages – In Like New Condition Check Out Our eBay Store (Grannyspalapa) For Other Similar Items www.ebay.com/str/grannyspalapa For International Shipping, please email me for costs
