abstract

{"value"=>"Ruth Mata (Mata Krantz) and Eugene Hari (Otto Ulbricht) were Swiss-born dance satirists. After touring Europe and the United States with the Trudi Schoop Comic Ballet in the 1930s, the couple formed their own company, Mata & Hari. They made their Broadway debut in The Straw Hat Revue in 1939 with Jerome Robbins and Imogene Coca. Throughout the 1940s, Mata & Hari performed at upscale supper clubs in New York, including La Martinique, the Beachcomber, and The Diamond Horseshoe, and at many concerts halls in New York and San Francisco, including Carnegie Hall and the Warfield. They made several appearances in television and film from the 1950s to the 1960s, most notably on The Ed Sullivan Show. The Mata & Hari papers document their careers from 1946 to 1974, when they were fully engrossed in their school of dance and pantomime in New York City. The collection holds press releases, newspaper reviews, show announcements, and publicity photographs. Their tour of The World in Pantomime in Dance in 1963 is the best-represented show in the collection, which featured many of their well-known acts, such as \"Kiss Me, My Love\" and \"Carnegie Hall.\""}
