Description

"The G. K. Hall Bibliographic Guide to Theatre Arts lists recent publications catalogued during the past year by The Research Libraries of The New York Public Library with additional entries from Library of Congress MARC tapes. It also serves in part as an annual supplement to the Catalog of the Theatre and Drama Collections, The Research Libraries of The New York Public Library." "The word "theatre" is interpreted in its broadest sense and covers the stage, cinema, radio, television, nightclub performances, the circus, vaudeville, marionettes and magic. Holdings of the Theatre Collection relate to stage history, production techniques, acting, theatre criticism, biography, and material on individual theatres. Typescripts of plays, promptbooks, shooting scripts of motion pictures, and radio and television production scripts make up an important segment of the Collection's holdings." "The Drama Collection consists of plays written in the minor as well as the major languages; translations as well as original editions have been sought. Included are volumes containing a single dramatic work, the collected plays or selections from the plays of a single author, and dramas appearing in anthologies or periodicals. Recent titles cataloged during the past year and held in the Drama Collection are included in this Guide."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
