The New York Public Library for the Performing Arts at Lincoln Center celebrates the theatre photography of Joan Marcus and Carol Rosegg in a new exhibition beginning May 1. In 2018, the Library acquired the photographs of Rosegg and Marcus, who have photographed the New York theatrical scene for over four decades.

The first major exhibition of their photographs, Photo Call: The Theater Photos of Joan Marcus and Carol Rosegg, will continue through September 28. The exhibition, curated by Doug Reside in collaboration with the photographers, features photos that are part of the Billy Rose Theatre Division at the Library for the Performing Arts.

Digital projections and newly made photographic prints are accompanied by video commentary about the images taken by the two photographers, who shared a Chelsea studio for many years while building their separate careers. Attendees can expect to see photos from Avenue Q, Rodgers + Hammerstein’s Cinderella, Finding Neverland, Hamilton, Les Misérables, The Lion King, and Wicked as well as other Broadway and Off-Broadway productions since the 1980s.

The new exhibition places the work of Marcus and Rosegg among the other major theatre photographers of Broadway history, including Martha Swope, Kenn Duncan, Friedman-Abeles, and Florence Vandamm.
