Kate Holmes visits one of our partner archives, the University of Bristol Theatre Collection. She talks to its Director Jo Elsworth, Archive Assistant Athene Bain and Catherine Hindson, who uses the collection in teaching and research within the Theatre Department. We discuss how their eclectic resources reveal how engaged nineteenth century audiences were and the archive as an inspirational place.
