Stratford upon Avon; Shakespeare Memorial Theatre, 1951-1956., 1951. Original Wrappers. 29 programmes for productions of Shakespeare's plays during the 1950s. Quarto (each approx 25 cm x 19). Four have printed synopses loosely inserted, while Richard III has a printed pedigree; 2 include promotional slips relating to refreshments.

Overall condition: Very Good. All the productions excepting Voplone in 1952 were of Shakespeare's plays, and there is only one duplicate in the series (The Tempest 1952). An exceptional record of the actors and supporting production and theatre staff. Scarce.
