EPHEMERA COLLECTION FINDING AID

J.C. Williamson pantomime programs Performing Arts Programs and Ephemera (PROMPT)

Australian Collection Development

James Cassius Williamson was an American actor who immigrated to Australia in the

1870s. Along with business partners, such as William Musgrove, his theatre company

became one of the most dominant in colonial Australia. After his death in 1913 the

company, now named J. C. Williamson Ltd. continued under the direction of George Tallis

and the Tait brothers (who remained involved in the company until the 1970s).

J. C. Williamson continued to be one of the biggest theatre companies in Australia

throughout the first three quarters of the 20th century. J. C. Williamson held the license for

theatres in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide and New Zealand (at times more than

one theatre in each city). In 1976 the company closed, but the name was licensed until the

mid 1980s.

This list includes pantomimes held in J. C. Williamson theatres, as well as those produced

by J. C. Williamson and performed in other theatres under venue hire arrangements.

The list also includes libretti for overseas pantomime productions collected by J. C.

Williamson for their corporate archive.

Content

Printed materials in the PROMPT collection include programs and printed ephemera such

as brochures, leaflets, tickets, etc. Theatre programs are taken as the prime documentary

evidence of a performance staged by the J.C. Williamson company. In a few cases however,

the only evidence of a performance is a piece of printed ephemera. In these cases the type

of piece is identified, eg, brochure.

The list is based on imperfect holdings and is updated as gaps in the Library’s holdings for

these artists are filled. Unless otherwise stated, all entries are based on published programs

in the PROMPT collection.

Access

The J.C. Williamson PROMPT files may be accessed through the Library’s Petherick

Reading Room by eCallslip request: http://nla.gov.au/nla.cat-vn3666448.

Arrangement

This list has two sections:

Pantomimes produced by J. C. Williamson or produced in J. C. Williamson theatres

Libretti for overseas productions of pantomimes collected by J. C. Williamson

The primary arrangement of this finding aid is chronological based on the start date of each

production. The selection of libretti for overseas pantomimes at the end of the list has been

arranged alphabetically according to the title of the production.

All dates are based on evidence in the programs or ephemera, or have been confirmed by

accessing newspaper articles and advertisements through Trove.

Entries for each program in the main section are arranged as follows:

Year of production Title of Production / creator if known

Date (day and month)

Theatre/venue

Headline performers

Brief description of item holdings, ie ‚2 copies of program‛

An index to headline performers (listing performer’s name, year of appearance and venue),

venue and production title is also provided at the end of the document.
