A2023.JitneyPlayers.010.1-1

Black & white photograph showing the dragon painted on the Madison Playbarn's proscenium (the part of the theater stage in front of the curtain).
It has an attached label: "A dragon proscenium and red velvet drapes graces the stage and transformed an early 18th century barn into a 'real' theater."
Madison was home to the country's earliest summer theater. In 1918, Constance Grenelle Wilcox and Alice B. Keating founded the Woodland Garden Plays. The first performances were held in the woods behind the Wilcox home on Island Avenue, but later moved into an old barn on the property, called the "Playbarn". The plays were popular fundraisers for charitable causes including post WWI relief, the Madison Historical Society and the preservation of the Lee Academy.
