The Little Hut, written by André Roussin and adapted by Nancy Mitford, was first produced in London in 1950. The play was produced in Boston and then on Broadway in 1953 by producer John C. Wilson. The Little Hut production materials date from 1950 to 1955 and primarily document the 1953 American productions. The collection contains correspondence and contracts with investors; financial information about the production; multiple versions of the script, including a stage manager's copy; and programs from the Boston production at the Plymouth Theatre and the Broadway production at the Coronet Theatre. The collection also contains copies of telegrams that John C. Wilson sent on the play's opening nights in England and Scotland.
