Broadway Theatre Archive
Broadway Theatre Archives?
Hello! I'm not familiar with New York but I am in the process of reaching several little-known Broadway plays (ones that were likely not published) from the 1940s. I have good theatre reviews from the era as well as performance dates, casting information, and other stuff that is available online. What I would like to find is whether or not scripts or any other documents of archival quality still exist. I'm considering trying the New York Public Library, Museum of the City of New York, and several other places, but if anyone knows where I might have some success or has any other ideas, any information would be greatly appreciated (please include a brief description of your experience, if you have any).
Contact New York Public Library's Library of the Performing Arts - which is at Lincoln Center. If you contact them, you can talk to a reference archivist who can help you find the material you need. They are the best resource for that sort of material.
