Stories, scenes and plays

 Sub-Series

Scope and Contents

This series contains texts of short stories; excerpts from larger prose works; scripts for derived works; excerpts from plays; and complete texts of short plays. Texts found in folders with broad captions such as "Stories" or "Monologues" have generally been assigned individual folders (many of these were duplicates to copies found elsewhere), but collections have been left as found when the folder caption appears to provide context (as in "Scenes for Los Angeles class"). Texts that can be associated with productions are generally housed with the production; but if it appears that extracts from works were also used for training the extracts will be found here.
