1960réf. 361749Los Angeles: Comedia Productions 1960. Ephemera. Very good. A production script for an undetermined production of this musical based on the characters from Steinbeck's Cannery Row. The initial 1955 production was widely panned but it has been produced in smaller theaters around the US. This version with Leslie Abbott's Comedia Productions imprint is undated but may be from the 1960s or 1970s. Abbott 1925–2012 spent most of his career in the San Francisco Bay Area where he taught at Diablo Valley College and directed more than 150 plays. Why this script has a Los Angeles address your cataloguer does not know. The script is a photocopy of a much photocopied script bound with prong fasteners into a blue paper folder. A costume designer has made note on various pages and on the verso back of the last leaf including "Pad Sandee's Boobs." Prong binding somewhat rusted. With notes from the bookseller Peter Howard Serendipity Books in Berkeley on the first page. Comedia Productions unknown
