Description
Mainly bound typescripts of texts of the plays, a few of these accompanied by music (single songs, piano scores and/or full parts). Many have programs pasted in.
Background
The Senior Extravaganza was an original farce written and performed by members of the Senior Class as part of their commencement celebrations. The first was performed in 1894 as an afternoon entertainment, but after completion of the Greek Theatre it became an evening performance. This tradition did not survive the disruption of World War II.
