abstract
{"value"=>"Wyman Pendleton (1916-1995) was a stage and film actor whose roles included parts in Richard Barr and Clinton Wilder productions and Edward Albee plays on and off Broadway. In 1979, he acted in the international tour of <span class=\"title\">Albee Directs Albee</span>. Pendleton also performed in the Stratford Festival in Canada from the 1950s to the 1970s. The Wyman Pendleton papers date from 1958 to 1994 and consist of scripts, posters, programs, original drawings and costume designs, and other ephemera from productions he appeared in. Some of the scripts have light annotations and contain production papers such as contact lists, performance schedules, or, in the case of screenplays, shooting schedules. Not all scripts are complete. The collection includes three original costume designs created for Pendleton's roles in the Stratford Festival in 1971 and 1972. The designs are by Annena Stubbs (for <span class=\"title\">Volpone</span>), Jane Greenwood (for <span class=\"title\">Antony and Cleopatra</span>), and Deirdre Clancy (for <span class=\"title\">Macbeth</span>). There are two unidentified drawings, possibly of Pendleton in costume, signed M. Jacobs and Blanchard, respectively. <span class=\"title\">Albee Directs Albee</span> materials include posters and promotional material from productions in South Korea, Hong Kong, and the Philippines."}
