Scope and Content

This series contains scripts, lyrics and music used by Maudie Edwards during her career. As they are largely loose papers they contain a significant number of unidentified and draft fragments. A large proportion of the documents have been annotated either during the process of drafting, or with instructions for performance.

Arrangement

Arranged alphabetically by name of programme when clearly stated, and by name of song or script where no programme title apparent. Untitled fragments grouped at the end of the series.
