Thanks CC for the ad. Something you won’t see this coming Easter is a live stage show with orchestra and a 35mm film movie. I was so lucky as a young kid to see the whole Radio City production. It was even a 70mm film I think with a stage production.

The ROXY stage shows were “iceless” at this point. Robert Rothafel (Roxy’s nephew)was still in charge. What attempts did he make to unstill more life into the showplace? Or was it completely swept away from him by Rock Center near the end of 1959? I am sure Rock Center had no intention of keeping the ROXY going indefinitely. They were just waiting for the right time to close.
