Theatre History Slides

[Jo�l Beddows]

Hello Richard,

I recently taught a first year theatre history course at l'UQÀM, and found that
their library had a good collection of slides. I never lacked for material.
Perhaps you might be able to borrow them over the summer - through
inter-library loan? - and make copies.

Best of luck,

Joël Beddows
