{"value"=>"<p>Contains newspaper clippings of reviews of plays and appearances by Cooper that were pasted into the volume with no particular order. The majority of the reviews pertain to three one-act plays produced on Broadway in 1917 all written by Ridgely Torrence. The three plays: The Rider of Dreams (in which Cooper appeared), Granny Maumee, and Simon the Cyrenian, were directed by Robert Edmond Jones, who was also the set designer. J. Rosamond Johnson was the show's musical director, accompanied by the Clef Club Orchestra. Reviews of the three dramas appeared in several newspapers. Other play reviews include A Fool There Was, St Augustine's Vaudeville, and Darkydom (Cooper appeared in all of these plays). Reviews of Cooper's performances at the Cafe de Paris and the Taj Mahal (1927 and 1935) are also in the scrapbook. In addition, there is a flyer featuring Cooper and Lee Hutchinson, a notice of Cooper appearing as a tenor at an African Methodist Episcopal Church, and an editorial in the <em>Crisis</em> on Mrs. Emily Hapgood, producer of Torrence's three one-act plays.</p>"}
