It wasn’t just terror: The Nazis won the cultural battle in a year.

For the National Socialists, everything was political.

All forms of culture — from theatre and cinema to painting and literature — were turned into instruments of propaganda and antisemitism.

#OTD in 1920.

The Blue Flame, a four-act play by George V. Hobart and John Willard after Leta Vance Nicholson, opens at the Shubert Theatre on Broadway before a year's U.S. tour. Though described by a critic as "one of the worst plays ever written," it is a commercial success, largely due to Theda Bara as the central character of a vamp.

A thread of some photos from the Joseph and Lara Cherniavsky archival collection at YIVO. Russian Jewish musicians who were married & arrived in NYC around 1920, Lara was a pianist and arranger, and Joseph was a cellist, composer and bandleader. This seems to be backstage in the mid 1920s in Joseph's "Hasidic American Jazz Band" which was neither Hasidic nor Jazz, but was a vaudeville klezmer act featuring some of NY's finest.
