Tom Stoppard Papers

Title: Tom Stoppard Papers

The Stoppard papers consist of typescripts, holograph manuscripts, computer printouts, page proofs, galley proofs, printed pages, theatre programs, photographs, photographic negatives, advertising material, clippings of articles and reviews, correspondence, dust jackets, and watercolor sketches by unknown artists, all ranging in date from 1939 to 2000 (bulk 19760-2000). Nearly all of Stoppard's major plays, screenplays, teleplays, and radio plays are represented in some form, along with many of his lesser-known works and some that were never produced. Stoppard's short stories are not well documented in the collection, although his only novel, LORD MALQUIST AND MR. MOON, is represented. For many works, material from first or early drafts through various revisions, production, further revisions, and publication are present. Page proofs, galleys, and typesetting copy typescripts show changes made in subsequent editions after the initial publication of a work. Correspondence in the collection relates almost exclusively to Stoppard's career and is primarily incoming correspondence. Significant correspondents include Ed Berman, Dirk Bogarde, John Boorman, Noel Carr, Michael Codron, Guy Dumur, Kenneth Ewing, Faber and Faber, Lady Antonia Fraser, Michael Frayn, David Hare, Glynn Boyd Harte, Michael Horovitz, Ilya Levin, Bryan Magee, Trevor Nunn, Laurence Olivier, Harold Pinter, Ned Sherrin, Anthony C.H. Smith, and Kenneth Tynan. Materials relating to Stoppard's involvement in human rights and charitable organizations are also present, as are photographs and personal memorabilia.

Amis, Kingsley, 1922-. Collection, 1933-1968.

Title: Collection, 1933-1968.

The Kingsley Amis collection, 1933-1968, consists of typescript and holograph drafts and notes for his works. The works in the collection are arranged in chronological order, beginning with two upublished works, an essay book written by Amis at age 11 and his rejected B. Litt. Thesis (1947), followed by material relating to ten of the seventeen books Amis published between 1954 and 1968. Included are corrected typescripts of two of his satiric novels, Lucky Jim (1954) and One Fat Englishman (1963); two mysteries The Egyptologists (1965) and The Anti-Death League (1966), and his James Bond novel Colonel Sun (1968). Each of these manuscripts is accompanied by notes and outlines. Other Amis titles are represented by notes and fragments. Among this material is a notebook full of notes and outlines for Take A Girl Like You (1960) and copious notes, lists, and drafts for his two James Bond studies: The James Bond Dossier (1956) and The Book of Bond (1965). The collection offers extensive material for examining Amis' method of composition and editing: it reveals Amis' propensity for creating lists, outlining scenes, and taking notes on whatever scrap of paper was at hand. There is no material in the collection relating to his personal life, and there is only one piece of correspondence: a note dated 29 September 1968, from Anthony Hobson to Mrs. Kingsley Amis.

Lucille Lortel papers

Title: Lucille Lortel papers

The papers of Lucille Lortel relate the details of her life and career from teen years to her death in 1999, and include correspondence, production files, scripts, programs, production photographs, personal and family photographs, organization files, clippings, memorabilia, and scrapbooks. Lucille Lortel's life spanned the twentieth century, so in addition to providing details of her family and personal life her papers encompass many aspects of the theatrical history of her era. Lortel is credited with fostering the Off-Broadway movement and providing a forum for avant-garde and experimental work at her Theatre de Lys. Lortel's productions at the White Barn and the ANTA Matinee Series at the Theatre de Lys brought works by Jean Genet, Sean O'Casey, Athol Fugard, and others to a wider audience. Many of these productions are represented in the collection by correspondence, programs, photographs and clippings. Over the years Lortel also worked closely with several non-profit theaters as a donor and mentor. Her affiliations with Circle in the Square, Circle Repertory Company, Goodspeed Opera House, Yale Repertory Theatre, and other companies are documented in the organization files.
