42nd Street Backdrops

Recreate the glitz and glamour of 1930s Broadway with Grosh Backdrops and Drapery’s fine selection of New York, musical, and dance-themed backdrops specifically made for stagings of the Tony Award-winning musical 42nd Street.

Our stage backdrop designs include those portraying Broadway, Times Square, the New York City skyline, and various stylized motifs which you can use to construct the fresh-off-the-bus adventure of Peggy Sawyer as she goes around the city in hopes of realizing her dream to become a theater actress.

42nd Street is a classic musical based on the novel by Bradford Ropes and the 1933 film adaptation that featured the music of Harry Warren and lyrics of Al Dublin. The film was a commercial success and was critically acclaimed, now considered an American cinema classic.

In the musical, celebrated Broadway director Julian Marsh is tasked by financier Abner Dillon to set up a new musical in order to catapult his girlfriend, songstress Dorothy Brock, back to stardom. Unfortunately, the prima donna Brock breaks her ankle, so a novice chorus girl, Peggy Sawyer, is chosen as her replacement and gets the chance to become a star. Peggy, however, has to quickly learn the ropes and survive the dictatorial tutelage of the Great White Way director.

Create a musical that is as winning as the one portrayed in 42nd Street. Grosh, a leading backdrop rental company in Los Angeles, California and Evansville, Indiana, is your resource for the best backdrops, curtains, and drapes.
