Series VII. Production Books, 1982-2011, inclusive

Extent

5.48 Linear Feet in 7 manuscript boxes, 2 record cartons, and 1 large flat box

Scope and Contents note

This series is comprised of the contents of binders and folders that variously included scripts, notes, cues, contact sheets, and schedules, usually heavily annotated. These books were often compiled by a stage manager or director in order to be used during production of a play. Several Mabou Mines' productions, and some Mabou Mines-affiliated productions, are represented. There is significant overlap with Series III: Production Files. Of particular interest are the contents of binders used by JoAnne Akalaitis during production of the Dead End Kids film.
