Part of Papers of Sir Peter Shaffer

21 ff. of material relating to the production at the Globe Theatre, comprising ff. 30-50 of the scrapbook. There are six publicity photographs taken on the street outside the theatre, three of PS taken by Laon Maybanke, and three of Victor Spinetti taken and signed by Paul [J?] Winham. The printed material consists of a handbill and 27 cuttings, most of them theatre reviews from a variety of U.K. newspapers and magazines including a review by Harold Hobson, Bernard Levin's "I'm glad I've caught up" in the 'Daily Mail' of 8 Jan. 1963, and a feature on Peter as one of "[David] Kossoff's Friends" with a portrait sketch and short biography. There are two reviews from outside the U.K.: "Du sillage de Shakespeare à une réussite en un acte" from the 'Tribune de Genève' of 5 July 1962 and Richard Watts Jr.'s "Detective out of Lewis Carroll" in the 'New York Post' of July 1962.
