Scope and Content

The Creamer collection contains production scripts of plays presented at the Goodman Theatre between 1985 and 1996. Supporting the scripts are research materials, photographs, and audiocassettes relating to research in the Dramaturg's office.

The collection has been arranged into one series (Research Materials) and two sub-series (Audio Cassettes, and Photographs and Slides). Each series is arranged chronologically by production. A small number of materials in outdated formats (i.e. 5 ¼" floppy disks) have been removed; an inventory of those materials is available.

Research materials include photocopied articles and book chapters pertaining to Goodman productions, as well as reviews, correspondence, interview recordings and transcripts, and drafts of the Goodman's newsletter, OnStage . Also included in this series are oversize materials, which while separated physically from the manuscript material, are noted with their respective productions and also listed at the end of the Box and Folder Inventory.
