Formal title:: Blackfriars Theatre Guild collection
Extent:: 12.5 linear feet (13 boxes)
Date range:: 1921-1997
Abstract:: The Blackfriars Theatre Guild collection details the American Catholic theatre movement from the 1940s through the early 1970s, giving particular attention to the Blackfriars Theatre in New York City, a viable and prolific off-Broadway theatre during the mid-twentieth century. In 1931 two priests, Urban Nagle and Thomas Fabian Carey, founded the Blackfriars Guild, reviving the name of the sixteenth century private theatres in London. Originally based at the Catholic University of America in Washington, D.C. where the two men were studying, the organization would eventually expand to twenty-two chapters across the country. However, it was the New York City theater, established in 1940 under the direction of Father Nagle and Father Carey, that was the most widely acclaimed and celebrated theatre of the guild until it closed in 1972. This collection includes scripts, photographs, play bills, reviews, and memorabilia for many of the productions. Also included are correspondence, legal documents, news clippings, and publications which record the history and legacy of the guild. In addition, the collection contains the correspondence of Father Carey, one of the primary managers of Blackfriars Theatre in New York.
