PLAYHOUSE ON THE SQUARE PROGRAMS COLLECTION

Processed by Joan Cannon and Shelby County Room Memphis Public library and Information Center 2008

PLAYHOUSE ON THE SQUARE PROGRAMS COLLECTION

The Playhouse on the Square Programs Collection was donated to the Memphis Public Library and information Centers by several individuals over many years. The programs were then gathered together to create this collection.

Playhouse on the Square was formed when $30,000 from Overton Square was provided for renovation of the 2121 Madison building along with increased funding from the Memphis Arts Council.

A production of Godspell was performed at the grand opening on November 12, 1975. Memphis now had a professional theatre after a seven-year hiatus. Beverly Baxter, John Dunavant, Michael Jeter and Larry Riley were among the fine actors who performed during the first season. They later worked in Hollywood and .

In 1981 Playhouse initiated the intern program. They assist in all phases of production.

By 1985 the 2121 Madison building was becoming inadequate. Seating was limited and Overton Square was sold. The old Memphian Theatre, located on Cooper near Union, was available to lease. Instead of leasing, the Theatre was purchased. Money was raised to renovate the building.

The opening celebration was held on November 13, 1985 with a production of Gypsy. It was also the inauguration of the newly renovated theatre.

In 1990 Playhouse instituted the City’s first independent theatre school. The Theatre was the recipient of the 1990 Governors Award in the Arts.

Customers interested in the development of theater in Memphis may also wish to consult the Theatre Memphis Programs Collection, Circuit Playhouse Programs Collection, Memphis Open Air Theater Collection and the Ethel Taylor Maxwell Collection.
