Theatre Historical Society of America : ウィキペディア英語版 | Theatre Historical Society of America The Theatre Historical Society of America (THS) was founded in 1969 to promote the legacy of America’s historic theatres and insure the documentation of the architectural, cultural and social history of those theatres. Through programs that include the collections in the American Theatre Architecture Archive, regional theatre tours, cooperative museum exhibits, publications, lectures, awards and research fellowships, THS seeks to promote appreciation, scholarly study and use of these historically significant buildings. THS is an 501(c)(3) non-profit educational organization approved by the Internal Revenue Service. It is located in Elmhurst, Illinois on the second floor of Classic Cinemas' historic York Theater. ==History== The Theatre Historical Society was founded in 1969 by writer and theatre historian Ben M. Hall, author of the first book celebrating America's movie palaces, ''The Best Remaining Seats''. After Hall's death in 1970, one year after founding THS, Brother Andrew Corsini Fowler, Frank Cronican, Terry Helgesen and others were instrumental in shaping THS into the foremost organization of its kind in the U.S. From just a handful of interested enthusiasts, it has grown into a national organization with an international membership composed of individuals, university and public libraries, theatres, performing arts organizations and other interested firms and groups. The organization is led by Executive Director Rick Fosbrink, on behalf of a volunteer board of directors and officers.
