CASA MANANA Program


One of the items in the little archive of material left to my mother by Fenn Leech was this Program from the 1937 season of the original Casa Manana. It is a snapshot of a time long past, although I can honestly say that this is the Fort Worth that I grew up in and remember with much fondness.

Until this time Fort Worth was considered just a "Cowtown" where the herds were driven and dropped off for slaughter. After 1936 and Billy Rose the City that would be became the cultural center of the state of Texas. And it still is!
