itemprop="mainContentOfPage"> <div id="node-8493" class="node node-page clearfix"> <div class="content"> <p><strong>When the play ends what remains?</strong></p> <p>Theatre is an ephemeral art; but accessing material collected in a theatre archive can help to bring alive past productions and allow one an insight into the working methods of the performers and the production team.聽</p> <h3>Collecting Policy</h3> <p>The National Theatre Archive has a broader collecting policy than most theatre archives: it is our constant effort to document the history of both the administrative and creative aspects of the National. By reference to the various series of records held at the Archive one can trace the lifecycle of any NT production from planning correspondence to design to marketing to Stage Manager's reports. The collection covers the period from the inception of the company in 1963 to the present day and also reaches back to the late 19th century to document the movement to establish a national theatre. There exists a consistent range of series in the collection for each production, these include: programmes, posters, photographs, videos, sound recordings of Platform events, press cuttings, prompt scripts, production drawings, costume, lighting, and sound information. At the end of a production's run, the Archivist arranges the transfer of material from the various departments to the Archive; material from the key series mentioned above usually becomes available within a few months of the end of a run.聽</p> <h3>Deposited Collections</h3> <p>The Archive also holds papers relating to early 20th century attempts to establish a 'national theatre' including records of the Shakespeare Memorial National Theatre Trust; the Sidney Bernstein Collection and Sir Edwin Lutyens designs for the National Theatre (1938). The Archive has also benefited from private deposits, we hold the papers of聽<a title="Theatre Projects website" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20140622054447/http://www.tpcworld.com/publications.asp?section=5&level2=21&level3=0&id=143" target="_blank">Theatre Projects Consultants</a> concerning the build of the National Theatre;聽<span style="line-height: 1.538em;">聽</span><span style="line-height: 1.538em;">the Kate Fleming Collection which documents the life of the National's first voice coach; the Ken Briggs Collection from the National's first Graphic Designer; the Michael Mayhew Collection from our Head of Art for from 1976 to 2011; the Jock McDougall Collection of set photography; and many smaller collections including designs from聽</span><span style="line-height: 1.538em;">Tanya Moiseiwitch and a print collection from the photographer Chris Arthur.</span></p> <h3>How was the archive collected?</h3> <p>Reporting on the appointment of Kenneth Tynan as Literary Manager at the National Theatre <a title="The Stage website" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20140622054447/http://www.thestage.co.uk/" target="_blank"><em>The Stage</em></a> (15 August 1963) expressed the hope that his duties would extend to maintaining an archive: </p> <p> "A log-book and a library are essential attributes to an organisation as important as the National Theatre, where businesslike records should be kept and maintained from the very first production onwards...few theatres in this country bother about keeping records. It is no one's specific job and consequently no one bothers about it. A number of leading West End theatres recently celebrated their jubilee, but journalists who wished to write features on these events found it very difficult to get material. No one seemed to keep programmes, press cuttings or any pictorial records of distinguished productions seen during the past half-century. Managements come and go without leaving a trace behind them."</p> <p>Though lampooned in <em>Private Eye</em> as the new "librarian for an obscure south London repertory company", Tynan achieved no such permanent repository. At the set-up of the Archive in 1993 historical material was gathered from departments of the National Theatre (see An Invaluable Collection); remarkably, the assiduous efforts of many NT staff had ensured that the collection deposited and arranged in the Archive was near complete. As the National Theatre celebrated its 50th anniversary in October 2013 the archive collection was invaluable in our producing documentaries, exhibitions, publications and events celebrating the past work of the National.聽</p> </div> </div> </div> </article> </div> <footer class="box-spacing-top box-shadow box-padding clearfix" role="contentinfo"> <div class="col1" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Organization"> <section> <p class="text-20px address"><strong><span>National Theatre</span>, <span>South Bank</span>, <span>London</span>, <span>SE1 9PX</span>. </strong></p> </section> <section> <p class="text-20px"><strong>Box Office <span class="text-orange">020 7452 3000</span> </strong></p> </section> <section> <p><strong>Contacting us</strong></p> <ul id="nav-footer1" class="clearfix"> <li><a href="/web/20140622054447/http://www.nationaltheatre.org.uk/your-visit/contact-us" title="general contacts">General Contacts</a></li> <li><a href="/web/20140622054447/http://www.nationaltheatre.org.uk/renew" title="memberships">Memberships</a></li> <li><a href="/web/20140622054447/http://www.nationaltheatre.org.uk/support-us/corporate-support" title="Corporate Support">Corporate Support</a></li> <li><a href="/web/20140622054447/http://www.nationaltheatre.org.uk/costume-and-props-hire" title="costume and props hire">Costume & props hire</a></li> <li><a href="/web/20140622054447/http://www.nationaltheatre.org.uk/discover-more/about-the-nt/press" title="press">Press</a></li> <li><a href="/web/20140622054447/http://www.nationaltheatre.org.uk/discover-more/welcome-to-the-national-theatre/about-the-national-theatre/studio" title="the studio">Studio</a></li> <li><a href="/web/20140622054447/http://www.nationaltheatre.org.uk/discover-more/archive" title="archive">Archive</a></li> <li><a href="/web/20140622054447/http://www.nationaltheatre.org.uk/your-visit/access" title="accessibility">Accessibility</a></li> <li><a href="/web/20140622054447/http://www.nationaltheatre.org.uk/your-visit/careers-at-the-national-theatre" title="jobs">Careers</a></li> <li><a href="/web/20140622054447/http://www.nationaltheatre.org.uk/discover-more/welcome-to-the-national-theatre/about-the-national-theatre/step-change" title="step change">Step Change</a></li> <li><a href="/web/20140622054447/http://www.nationaltheatre.org.uk/your-visit/hospitality-and-private-hire" title="">Venue hire</a></li> <li><a href="/web/20140622054447/http://www.nationaltheatre.org.uk/your-visit/hospitalityprivate-hire/the-deck" title="">The Deck</a></li> </ul> </section> <section class="copyright"> <div class="clearfix"> <p class="float-left">© National Theatre 2014</p> <ul id="secondary-menu" class="links inline clearfix"><li class="menu-1343 first"><a href="/web/20140622054447/http://www.nationaltheatre.org.uk/website-help/terms-and-conditions" title="Terms and Conditions">T&Cs</a></li> <li class="menu-1344"><a href="/web/20140622054447/http://www.nationaltheatre.org.uk/your-visit/website-help/privacy" title="Privacy information and data usage">Privacy</a></li> <li class="menu-983"><a href="/web/20140622054447/http://www.nationaltheatre.org.uk/sitemap" title="">Site map</a></li> <li class="menu-977 last"><a href="/web/20140622054447/http://www.nationaltheatre.org.uk/your-visit/website-help" title="Website help and bug report form">Website help</a></li> </ul> </div> <p><small>The Royal National Theatre is a registered charity no.224223.<br/>Registered as a company limited by guarantee in England no.749504.
