HISTORY OF THE PAGEANT OF THE MASTERS
The Pageant of the Masters did not start out as a respected fine-art and theatrical production. Seventy-five years ago, it was basically a publicity stunt to bring folks to the fledging Festival of Arts-an outdoor art exhibition.
In 1933, the "Spirit of the Masters" pageant, as it was called, was actually a parade, with a motley crew marching downtown along Coast Highway toward the festival.
Once they arrived, the players appeared one after another inside a tiny, booth-like set, standing still in poses such as "Whistler's Mother," "Blue Boy" and the "Sistene Madonna."
In 1935, Roy Ropp took over the living-pictures show and renamed it Pageant of the Masters. The name has stuck ever since.
In 1941, the pageant moved to the Irvine Bowl Recreational Park, where it is still located. World War ll haleted the festival and pageant for four years, but since 1946, the pageant has becomae an annual favorite among locals and out-of-town visitors.
