Scripts

[Note: Identifications such as "Director's
final draft," or "rehearsal draft," are taken directly from the scripts
themselves, as are dates. Scripts may be duplicates. The terms
"annotated," "notations," "markings" refer not only to commentary written
on the scripts, but also any cuts, revisions, dialogue changes, etc.,
that have been marked on a particular script. Covers have been removed,
unless marked. Several scripts, which are not properly "revivals," are
included here. NB: the dates. The following scripts are numbered and
lettered to distinguish them from the other Sweet Charity
