Theatre Arts. A magazine founded in Detroit in 1916 with Sheldon
Cheney as editor, it was first issued as a quarterly. It later became a monthly, edited first by Edith J. R.
Isaacs and then by Rosamund
Gilder. In its heyday it featured erudite yet popular articles on all aspects of theatre and avoided the more gossipy commonplaces of other such magazines. It also regularly offered complete scripts to plays and musicals and superbly reproduced photographs. In 1948 it combined with
The Stage (a magazine that had grown out of a
Theatre Guild house organ). Publication was discontinued in 1964.
