The Ziegfeld Society strives to preserve history through education & performance. |
History The Ziegfeld Society is focused on remembering the history of the ‘Golden Age of Broadway’ through the regular remembrance of not only Ziegfeld’s body of work, but also other musical revues of the era set in motion by Ziegfeld’s large-scale spectacles, from 1907 through roughly 1960. |
Preservation & Performance At meetings held the last Sunday of each month from September through June, the Society presents live performances on a variety of topics including material from stage productions, movies, and special presentations of the early part of the 20th century drawn from the World of Florenz Ziegfeld, and featuring a variety of performers of all ages from the Broadway stage, the cabaret world, TV, and film. |
Education The Ziegfeld Society looks to inspire new generations of young people with information about and performances reflecting the rich history of musical theatre, and as such, administers educational outreach programs in school systems nation-wide, as well as at the university level. |
