182. Newfoundland Performing Arts Theatre Reviews Newfoundland Performing Arts Theatre Reviews This collection was started in November 1991 when Denyse Lynde, professor of English Language and Literature at Memorial University, was preparing a paper on theatre reviews in the 1960s and 1970s. Lynde had two English graduate students, Lisa Stowe and Bruce Brenton, search the Evening Telegram and the Daily News for that period. Reviews were copied from microfilm and the students prepared a data sheet for each review containing key information from the review. Unfortunately, the project proved more time consuming than had been anticipated, so they began skipping the several months of each year when there were normally no reviews. They scanned papers for 1960 - 1964, 1967 and - 1970 - 1973. - - In 1993, Bruce Brenton began a new search of Michael Cook reviews for his own thesis research. It was arranged to have copies of these reviews also deposited into this collection. The Michael Cook reviews begin in 1966. COLL-169
