<font size="2" face="Tahoma"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif;">In 1984 (the same time I was looking for a copy) I had a most enjoyable sabbatical in Oakville. On returning to Fredericton afterwards, I asked my ‘old books’ guy if
he had managed to find a copy for me. His mouth dropped. “Didn’t you get my email?” he asked. “What email” said I. He then explained that he had indeed<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><i><span style="font-style: italic;">found</span></i><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>a
copy of the pamphlet/brochure (whatever) and had emailed me, asking if I wanted it. His email went astray. When he didn’t hear from me he sold it to a “dentist in Ottawa who collected old pamphlets”.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><span> </span>My
antiquarian bookseller then contacted the retired dentist in Ottawa to see if he’d allow a Xerox of the script for academic research. The guy said “NO!”<span> <span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span>I thought that was rather unreasonable, and got
my guy to contact him again. This time the dentist upper the stakes by threatening “I’ve already said NO, I’ve purchased it, it is mine, and if you ask me again I’ll stop purchasing books from you!” At that point, my guy bowed out of the whole issue. Thus
proceeds research into Canadian theatre history!<o:p></o:p></span></font></div>

<font size="2" face="Tahoma"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif;">So, in answer to your question, ‘Yes’ there is at least one copy of the script. Probably in Ottawa. Check out retired dentists. Or dentists not only retired but now
