Curtain Up is an exhibition created in partnership between the New York Public Library for the Performing Arts and London's V&A celebrating 40 Years of theater in both cities.
Curtain Up celebrates both the 40 year anniversary of the Olivier Awards and 70 years of the Tonysยฎ. It tells the story of the plays, musicals and productions that have won both an Olivier and a Tony, exploring the craft and collaboration that creates spectacular international theater. Highlights include costumes and masks from Disney's 'The Lion King;' the original costume designs from "The Phantom of the Opera"; a celebration of the international hit, 'A Chorus Line;'ย and the original set models for 'In the Heights,' 'Arcadia.' and 'War Horse.'
On February 15, 2017 Show-Score hosted its first member meet-up at this exhibit. ย You can visit the exhibit FOR FREE during library hours.
