Autograph letter signed "Sean" (2 pages), from Irish playwright and theater critic Sean O'Casey to "Johnnie," 1926 November 18. After giving an amusing account of the burglary of his London apartment building and its aftermath, O'Casey attends to business matters regarding amateur productions of his work, and difficulties with J. B. Fagan. He ends the letter with the expectation that it will be a long time before he returns to Dublin. The letter is written on stationery addressed 32, Clareville Street, Kensington, S.W. 7. The recipient is likely J. H. (John H.) Perrin, Secretary of the Irish National Theatre Society and business manager of the Abbey Theatre
