Kismet, 1988

Made: 1988

Record Number: HFC:2021:048

Kismet is a 1911 play in three acts written by Edward Knoblauch. The word 'Kismet' means fate or destiny in Turkish and Urdu. The play originally ran in London for two years before eventually opening in the United States. It was subsequently revived in later years and then adapted into musical form in the 1950s. Since its adaptation, several T.A.O.D.S performances of the musical have been staged at City Hall. This image depicts part of the 1988 cast of Kismet having tea in the annexe of City Hall.
