The most complete record of Caravan Theater is held at the Schlesinger Library on the History of Women in America, at the Harvard Radcliffe Institute. Its collection — the Papers of Bobbi Ausubel, 1965—1990 — includes scripts, correspondence, and documentation of the company’s activities across its full life.

The collection is cataloged in Harvard’s HOLLIS archives, where you can review the finding aid and arrange access. For a broader view of theater holdings, the Schlesinger’s performers and entertainers guide is a good starting point.

A film of How to Make a Woman exists, but it is not available online. To view it, contact the Harvard archive directly. We hope to make clips more widely accessible over time.

In the meantime, you can read about the play and its history on its own page, or read one version of the ever-evolving script (PDF).

Caravan was covered widely across its run, from raves to red-baiting. The Productions & Media page collects the full repertory alongside a selection of the press that covered it — reviews from The Boston Globe, the Boston Phoenix, the Harvard Crimson, and The New York Times, among others.
