The Return of the Native. Dorchester, Henry Ling, 1920. -- A Desperate Remedy. Dorchester: Henry Ling, 1922. -- The Famous Tragedy of the Queen of Cornwall At Tintagel in Lyonnesse. Dorchester: Henry Ling, 1924. -- Tess of the D'Urbervilles. A Tragedy in Four Acts and An After-Scene. Dorchester: Henry Ling, 1924. -- And other scarce theatre programs.

[With:] Tess. A Drama in Four Acts. London: G. Ricordi & Co., 1909. Original wrappers.

The Hardy Players were a theatrical group formed in Dorchester, Dorset in 1908, and founded by a local schoolmaster named Horace Moule who was inspired by Hardy's writings and wanted to bring them to life. The productions often featured amateur actors from the local community and were known for their dedication to preserving the spirit at atmosphere of Hardy's novels. The Players' most famous production was Hardy's own adaptation of Tess in 1924 and there was even discussion of the possibility of a London production. Any material related to this production is rare to market.
