Biographical/Historical Information

Barksdale Theatre was created by a group of friends who met during summer stock theatre in St. Clair, Michigan. The original founders were Tom Carlin, Stewart Falconer, David and Priscilla Kilgore, Muriel McAuley, and Pat Sharp. In June 1953 they moved to Richmond, Virginia, desiring to start their own theatre. The group purchased the historic Hanover Tavern in Hanover, Virginia, 1 August 1953, and established the nation's first dinner theatre, Barksdale Memorial Theatre. The theatre was named in memory of a deceased college friend, Barbara Barksdale (1930-1950). The theatre produced their first play, Gold in the Hills, at Barksdale Theatre, on 23 September 1954.

By 1960, four of the original members had left Barksdale, and David Kilgore had married Nancy Masters. The three remaining members, David and Nancy Kilgore, and Muriel McAuley lead the theatre for the next 40 years. Throughout those years they produced over 200 plays and renovated Hanover Tavern. In 1973, Barksdale produced the first professional production of a play based on African American experience, Lorraine Hansberry's To Be Young, Gifted, and Black. In 1975, they staged the first professional reenactment of Patrick Henry's "Liberty or Death" speech at the historic St. John's Church. In 1977 Barksdale produced the world premiere of Red, Hot, and Cole, an original play written by Muriel McAuley and Randy Strawderman. After hundreds of performances and the raising of several children and animals, in 1990 the founding members sold Hanover Tavern to the Hanover Tavern Foundation. The founders retired in 1993, naming John Glenn as artistic director. Of the founding members, Nancy Kilgore died 16 October 1993, and Muriel McAuley died 4 September 1998.

In 1996 Barksdale built and moved into a new facility at Willow Lawn Shopping Center in Richmond, Virginia. Randy Strawderman served as artistic director from 1997-2001. Currently, 2004, Bruce Miller serves as artistic director of Barksdale Theatre which continues the tradition of producing excellent theatre. For additional history of the theatre please consult, Going On...Barksdale Theatre The First Thirty One Years by Muriel McAuley (Taylor Publishing Co., 1984).

Scope and Content

The Barksdale Records are housed in 109 boxes and one oversized drawer. Included are bylaws, contracts, correspondence, deeds, financial materials, ledgers, minutes, musical scores, newsletters, newspaper clippings, photographs, posters, press releases, programs, receipts, reports, resumes, scrapbooks, and scripts. The records document the development of the company from its earliest performances at Hanover Tavern, to its contemporary performances at the Willow Lawn Center.

The records include deeds for Hanover Tavern and Willow Lawn Center, correspondence regarding literary rights of plays, scripts submitted by inspiring playwrights, fundraising campaign materials, articles of incorporation, Board of Trustee minute files, and personnel policy manuals. Although the collection includes records relating to the financial and managerial side of the business, they are sparse and incomplete.

The bulk of the collection are the clippings, photographs, posters, production files, programs, and reviews documenting the over 200 productions performed by the theatre in its 50 year history. Included are hundreds of photographs from the earliest productions to the current season, numerous theater programs, production files including directing books, cast contact lists, rehearsal schedules, and scripts, theater critic newspaper reviews, and posters of the productions. The collection also includes videos of some of the original performances. Two appendixes are available at the end of the finding aid listing all of the productions performed at Barksdale. One appendix is arranged chronologically, one alphabetically, and they record whether photographs or programs are available for the production. These appendixes are not available online.

A more in-depth description of the collection can be found in the Series level description. It is recommended that the researcher read the Series level scope and content notes thoroughly before accessing the collection.

The Correspondence and Scripts, Playwrights, Series is housed in 10 boxes and arranged alphabetically by folder title. General correspondence is arranged to the front. Following the general correspondence are folders arranged alphabetically by playwright's last name. These playwrights have individual folders due to the larger size of the scripts submitted.

Included are letters and either the entire play or a synopsis of a play. Often included were self addressed return envelopes and follow up letters. Some lyricists also included audio tapes of their music. The letters were from the authors or their agents, if they had one, and most letters were addressed to John Glenn or Randy Strawderman. The majority of the play submissions were made in the 1990's. Many of the letters were unopened when they were donated to the Library and were later opened by the archivist. Many of the writers sent in their plays after reading an advertisement by Barksdale in the Dramatists Sourcebook, asking for play submissions. Some authors include letters of recommendations, resumes, and reviews with their scripts.

The Production files Series is housed in 9 boxes and arranged chronologically with the year in parenthesis indicating the date of the opening. The documentation for each production varies in scope and may include notes, reviews, scripts, directing books, musical scores, press releases, royalty statements, budgets, prop lists, cast contact lists, actors photographs and resumes, costume and set designs, rehearsal schedules, finances, invitations, advertising, memorandum, and correspondence. The later works (from the 1990's) are represented by much more extensive documentation than the earlier productions. The exception being Red, Hot, and Cole (1977), which is extensively documented and includes agreements, audition notes, correspondence, director's notebooks, invitations, reviews, scripts, sheet music, and sketches.

The earlier shows, 1954-1970, mainly include invitations, notes on ticket sales, play production licenses, and finances. Also included in the earlier records is a collection of correspondence and receipts regarding royalty fees and purchases of copies of plays, 1956-1963. Additional correspondence regarding royalty fees can be found in Series II, Correspondence, General. Of note is a ledger, 1958-1959, recording the attendance and dinner reservations for performances during these years.
