Scope and Contents of the Materials

The Keith W. Johnson Theatrical Designs collection documents the Eastern Kentucky University theater program from 1976 through 2003. Mr. Johnson was responsible for the set design of all theater productions during that time period and these papers consist of his original drawings, blueprints, images and play programs. The images are of sets as well as those taken during performances. The photographs should be supplemented with the EKU Negative Collection, which also includes thousands of images of these plays. Programs for the productions should be supplemented with the EKU Ephemera collection.

The collection also contains slides and ephemera from some of Johnson's earlier work at Millikin University and with other theater companies.
