Michael Todd To Bring Hit Show to Hollywood Bowl "Up in Central Park," recognized as one of the most successful stage hits of the past decade, is being brought to the Hollywood Bowl on Saturday evening, September 7, by famed Broadway producer, Michael Todd. Producer Todd is re-scaling the show to an even greater size than it had originally been presented on Broadway, thus fulfilling the requirements of the huge bowl. An entirely new production concept has been devised which demands the construction of the largest stage sets ever to be used for a theatrical attraction. The show will play in the bowl for twenty-two consecutive nights in the longest engagement ever attempted there. The show played for nearly two years on Broadway, where it grossed over $4,000,000. For its bowl debut the show will be augmented to include 300 singers, dancers, and unusual specialty entertainers. It tells the colorful and exciting story of the New York newspaperman who exposed the notorious "Boss" Tweed ring in 1870, and has a musical score by Sigmund Romberg. Michael Todd intends to present musical spectacles in the Hollywood Bowl for one month each season, each to be of a scope impossible to achieve in even the biggest Broadway theatre. He is the fabulous young showman who, in rapid succession, produced such Broadway hits as "Hot Mikado," "Star and Garter," "Something for the Boys," "Mexican Hayride," and the Maurice Evans GI version of "Hamlet."
