Theatrical Production Files, 1908-1997 (bulk 1949-1990) (continued) | |||||||||||||
BOX 55-102, 397, 401, 404, 411, 426, 432-433 | Production Files, 1908-1997 (bulk 1949-1990) | ||||||||||||
This subseries documents more than 400 plays and other staged events produced,
backed, or supported by Roger L. Stevens as an individual or through the
various entities with which he was connected, including: American National
Theatre and Academy (ANTA), the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts,
Playwrights' Theatre, Producers' Theatre, Stevens Productions, and
Whitehead-Stevens. Also included here are plays produced in England and France. Materials consist of actor and crew contracts, audition and casting materials, budgets, box office reports, clippings, correspondence, financial reports, invoices and check stubs, play company contracts, posters, programs, production stills, rehearsal schedules, reviews, scrapbooks, and scripts. Most productions lack extensive documentation; some are only represented through a program or single production still. Well-documented productions include 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, Candide, The Cocktail Hour, Conduct Unbecoming, Double Cross, Jockey Club Stakes, Jumpers, Mary, Mary, A Piece of My Heart, The Pleasure of His Company, She Loves Me, and Sheep on the Runway. Programs and photographs are typically located in the front of a folder or the first folder where there are multiple files for a production. Programs for British and French productions of plays are included regardless of whether Stevens was involved in the production, as he often attended these performances prior to mounting his own. |
