Abstract:

Scripts and tape recordings of several popular Broadway stage plays, including Bye Bye Birdie, Carnival, George M!, and Hello, Dolly!, all of which were written by playwright Stewart. The papers include a few conductor's scores and lyrics, and some notes and miscellany, but the largest portion is composed of scripts in various drafts, most of which are annotated. Also present are taped performances of Hello, Dolly!, with Carol Channing (1964), Ginger Rogers (1965?), Martha Raye (1967, undated), and Pearl Bailey and Cab Calloway (1967), and a tape of George M! at the Fisher Theatre, 1968, with tapes of piano and vocal auditions, George M. Cohan songs, and sound effects and sound ballet.
