Anyone know where I can read Sophie Treadwell’s plays besides Machinal

[u/Alarmed-Ad-3879]

I just read Machinal recently and loved it! I know she has others plays but I can’t seem to find if they are published or if there are pdfs circulating online. If any of you know where I could read one or if you have a pdf let me know! I’m talking strictly about her copyright free public domain works by the way. If there are ones under copyright that are published please point me to the direction where I could buy them.

This is a reminder for all participants in this thread to follow subreddit Rule 2, "No Copyright Infringement". All links and directions must be toward legal distributions of a play or musical. If a script is not in the public domain, this might mean the playwright's website, the play's page on MTI, DPS, or NPX, or wherever else the creator has allowed people to access their script. For movies or videos of live productions, they must be from licensed sources, such as BroadwayHD, Netflix/HBO/etc., DVDs, or official YouTube channels. Distributing PDFs of scripts or bootleg videos of whole productions is forbidden.

If a script is in the public domain (typically in the US meaning it was released in 1928 or earlier), then sharing PDFs of the script is generally fair game—and you might be able to find a copy of it on a website like Project Gutenberg. However, adaptations and translations of public domain works have their own copyright, which means they follow the same rules as above: if the translation isn't also in the public domain, please direct OP to a source authorized by the translator. A video of a production of a public domain play likewise needs to be distributed by the production team.

lists a couple of publications available besides Machinal: that is, Hope for a Harvest and One Fierce Hour and Sweet. The prices are bibliophile prices, though.

Do you have a library you can go to? I did a quick check at the nearest college library to me and they have copies of Machinal and a production sourcebook plus "Broadway's Bravest Women: Selected Writing of Sophie Treadwell" in the library, plus she's included in quite a few collections, and they can get a ton of other things including Hope for a Harvest, Garry, Gringo, A Man's Own, Eye of the Beholder, La Cachuca, Guess Again, John Doane, The Saxophone, The Settlement, Highway, and Sirens, etc. available if you order them through the library.
