Possibly the author's first book (see below), from the Christopher Fry papers (despite the ownership inscription). 54pp, 12mo. Stapled into green printed wraps (title and words '(ALL RIGHTS RESERVED)'). Tiny ownership signature in initials ('R. G.') in top right-hand corner of title-page. No details of publication or date, other than the printers' slug at bottom left of title-page. At the foot of the title-page, where the name of the publisher usually sits, is: '(ALL RIGHTS RESERVED) | Requests for permission to perform this Pantomime should be made to the publishers.' Aged and worn, in like wraps, with lightly-rusted staples. A humorous piece in prose and verse, with humour and colloquial dialogue pointing to Fry's future achievements. Scarce: the only two copies on OCLC WorldCat at Oxford and the British Library, the latter copy being dated to 1934. Consequently one of Fry's earliest published works (it is stated on the title-page that the work has 'publishers', see above), if not his first, appearing around the same time as the 1934 'She Shall Have Music', written with Monte Crick and F. Eyton. According to Fry's entry in the Oxford DNB: 'After a brief spell as an actor in Bath and a schoolteacher in Surrey, in 1934 he became director of a repertory theatre in Tunbridge Wells, where he staged the first English production of G. B. Shaw's Village Wooing.'.…

From the Christopher Fry papers. PLAY: [1] + 47pp, 12mo. Stapled into buff wraps printed in red, including the statement that it is the 'Friends of Canterbury Cathedral Edition'. In fair condition, lightly aged, in worn wraps, with a trace of rust to staples. This edition of the play (the first?) is uncommon: the only copies on OCLC WorldCat at the British Library and University of British Columbia. COPY LETTER: 4pp, 12mo. In good condition, lightly aged. Written out in two hands, Recipient not named. With salutation 'Dear Sir,' and valediction 'I am | Yrs truly,'. Begins: 'The Canterbury Festival has this year been ennobled by a poetic drama which states in stark sincerity and with unflinching courage the message of Christ. Would that in every cathedral and place of worship in our land there could be set up those lines from the closing passage of' at this point the text continues in another hand. A reference is made to 'The forces with which this urgent message must contend are well illustrated in the notices of the play. | Again, as those of us who saw it know, the play reaches at its climax a passionate force of most moving sincerity.' The writer(s) take exception to the view of the Times reviewer that the language at the play's climax 'reveals a want of emotional force'. The reviewer, 'having clearly shown that he has understood much of the play's purpose, proceeds, to adapt his own phrase, conscientiously and deliberately to decry and question Mr Fry's deep sincerity [] It is plain that to the dramatic critic of the Times the message of Christ is a dangerous idea.' The letter ends: 'May I, in closing, congratulate Mr Michael Golden on his fine interpretation of Cymen's great struggle against evil, and the other members of a memorable cast on their part in the performance of so significant a play'. Also present is a newspaper cutting of a review of the 'Festival Play At Canterbury | From J. C. Trewin'.…
