This material includes programs from productions in all five theatres as well as the old Savoy Theatre. Records of the performers and directors, performance photographs, information about the College of Theatre Arts and scripts of over 1,100 plays are also catalogued. The library consists of books featuring the history of the theatre, biographies of outstanding characters of the theatre, acting techniques and other facets of the theatre. Our collection of Theatre Arts magazines dates back to 1926. Researchers, professional and personal, have been making use of this source of information.
All inquiries are welcome.
For a slight donation, whatever information is available will be researched, copied and forwarded. There are still some blanks in our collection prior to 1969. For example, some programs are missing and we need more performance photographs. If you have memorabilia concerning the Playhouse during that time, we would appreciate any donations. Personal visits to the archives are welcome by appointment.
