Broadway Show History

Clifford Odett's Awake and Sing had its Broadway premiere at the Belasco Theater in February 1935. On the boards were Luther Adler, Stella Adler, Roman Bohnen, Phoebe Brand, JE Bromberg, Morris Carnovsky, Jules Garfield, Sanford Meisner and Art Smith. The show ran for 135 performances, playing through July. The same cast returned to the same theater that September for a short repertory run

Productions of this play seem to run in pairs. In December 1938, the Federal Theatre Project brought its production to Daly's 63rd Street Theater for a 95-performance run. Ending in April 1939, that played for a month against the Group Theatre's revival of its original production at the Windsor Theater. The Group's show brought back many of the original cast, and Julia Adler assumed her Mother's role as Bessie Berger

The last Broadway revival of Awake and Sing was in 1984 by Circle in the Square Theater. Nancy Marchand stepped into Bessie Berger's shoes (with Phyllis Newman as her standby). Sharing the stage were Harry Hamlin, Benjamin Hendrickson, Dick Latessa, Michael Lombard, Frances McDormand, Luke Sickle, Paul Sparer and Thomas G Waites
