Robin Boyd Foundation
Document - Manuscript, Robin Boyd, A Night at the Opera House, 1971
This manuscript was intended to be presented as a lecture at the Royal Institute of British Architects Annual Conference in November 1971 (see item D456). This manuscript was unfinished when Robin Boyd died in October 1971. It was published in 'Architecture Plus', 'Architecture Plus', Vol.1, No.7, August 1973. The front cover of the issue has an image of one of the sails of the Sydney Opera House. The lead article is by Robin Boyd titled ‘A Night at the Opera House’ (pp. 48-55). This is a very important article. Note the article is prefaced by remarks by the Editor, but the year of Boyd's death is incorrectly given as 1972, instead of 1971. The published article is in the Walsh Street Archive (item P1276 and P1244).Original manuscript published in 'Architecture Plus', Vol.1, No.7, August 1973.Typewritten, foolscap, 11 pages, extensive edits in pen (not in Robin Boyd's writing) -
