Language: English. Brand new Book. This book demonstrates the wealth, variety, and cultural impact that Iowa opera houses had and continue to have on towns large and small; locates them geographically and describes and illustrates their exterior and interior physical characteristics with over 500 photographs. Although Iowa is primarily a rural state, the authors have documented the existence of over 1200 opera houses operating in Iowa between 1865 and 1920. Most studies in American Theatre History have concentrated their attention on the theatre in the bigger cities. This study will model a more accurate picture of exactly what happened in the less well-known but crucially important smaller cities and towns between 1865 and 1920. The authors believe that the story of Iowa opera houses serves as a microcosm of the popular theatre of the entire country. "A beautiful and enlightening book.

Now aging apartments, warehouses, run-down movie theatres, or simply rubble, these buildings were once the heart of community culture, hosting big city productions, sermons, medicine shows, talent contests, and much more. With tape measure and camera, Professors Glenn and Poole take stock of this rich heritage. Recording facts from seating capacity to scenery, lighting, stage dimensions, opera house personnel, and current use, they catalog over 300 extant and 700 non-extant opera houses. But their work is more than a record of facts. They explore the historical development of the opera house, its performers and performances, and the cultural mark these structures made on Iowa communities. Amply illustrated and filled with interesting details, The Opera Houses of Iowa offers a unique retrospective on a fascinating corner of architectural and state history.
