Playtexts and Productions
Gathered here are playscripts which were not acquired as part of an author's collection, and collections which document the production history of a single play. Production materials may also be found under Personal Papers and Institutional Records.
In the Joseph Jones Caribbean Plays Collection and the Playscripts and Promptbooks Collection, most of the texts are near final versions and many bear annotations by an actor or director. Generally, if an earlier version such as a working draft is to be found at the Center, it is located in the personal papers of the author.
For published texts, see Books.
