Our Performing Arts catalogue features a stellar cast of material drawn from across the disciplines. Screenplays and play scripts, contracts and correspondence, working copies and production archives, the collection brings together some of the world’s greatest writers, directors and performers - and Kim Jong Il. Highlights include annotated working screenplays from the sets of Luchino Visconti’s Death in Venice and Alain Resnais’s Last Year at Marienbad; Robert Bresson’s bible of auteur theory, inscribed; a large archive relating to the work of D. H. Lawrence on film; an early rehearsal script of Stephen Sondheim’s Company with one of the show’s highlights missing and yet to be written; extensive holdings of Hammer and early gay and trans film material; and irrefutable confirmation of the source of one of cinema’s timeless one-liners: ‘Infamy! Infamy! They’ve all got it in for me!’ (And no, it’s not Bresson.)
