| Notes | Imagery of cultural appropriation and terms used in these records reflect contemporary attitudes and language used during the period. All such terms are used in the interest of historical accuracy, as altering them would risk falsifying the historical record. It would also be problematic to source non-offensive modern equivalents with a similar meaning. These items do not reflect the views or opinions of the University of Kent, Special Collections & Archives or our staff. We apologise for any offence that our inclusion of these terms may cause. |
| Arrangement | Records have been arranged alphabetically by record type. Materials for Theatre Royal, Covent Garden, Royal English Opera, Covent Garden, and the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden have been grouped together as these are the same theatres. Whilst the theatre's most recent name is the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, the original name of Theatre Royal, Covent Garden has been retained to reflect that the vast majority of material within this subsubfonds was created whilst the theatre had this name. |
