London Piccadilly Theatre – The Masters – 1963
An original programme from the Piccadilly Theatre, London, 1963, for The Masters, with David Bird, Julie Webb, Gary Watson and Peter Copley.
The play is based on C. P. Snow’s novel about the fellows of a Cambridge college who must elect a new Master, a story of ambition, loyalty and quiet scheming behind ancient walls.
A thoughtful drama from the 1960s West End, this is an interesting theatre programme for collectors of literary adaptations.
