London Savoy Theatre – The Masters – 1963
An original theatre programme for The Masters at the Savoy Theatre, London, in 1963. The principal cast includes John Clements, Geoffrey Lumsden, Robert Hartley, Julie Webb, David Bird and Peter Copley.
The play was adapted by Ronald Millar from C.P. Snow’s novel. It follows the fellows of a Cambridge college as they jostle to elect a new Master.
A good addition to a collection of 1960s West End theatre programmes, and of interest to anyone who collects literary adaptations for the stage.
