{"value"=>"<p>This series is divided into 5 sub-series: Affiliated, ANTA Matinee Series, Off-Broadway, Broadway, and Library of Congress. While the affiliated productions are arranged alphabetically, the others are arranged chronologically.</p> <p>Included are Affiliated productions with which she was involved as the owner of the Theatre de Lys, the ANTA Matinee Series, which were innovative works performed at the Theatre de Lys on days when the Theatre was dark, and over 20 Off-Broadway productions, from Miss Lortel's first Off-Broadway venture, Christopher Fry's <span class=\"title\">A Sleep of Prisoners</span> at St. James' Episcopal Church in 1951, through <span class=\"title\">Mondays at the Lortel</span> in 1997. Her 7 Broadway productions are also documented from Sean O'Casey's <span class=\"title\">I Knock at the Door</span>'s premiere at the Belasco Theatre in 1957, through Lee Blessing's <span class=\"title\">A Walk in the Woods</span> at the Booth Theatre in 1987. Finally, materials for the 19 productions Lucille Lortel presented annually at the Library of Congress's Coolidge Auditorium (Washington, D.C.) from 1960 to 1988, beginning with Sean O'Casey's <span class=\"title\">Time to Go</span> and Paul Vincent Carroll's <span class=\"title\">The Coggerers</span>, through <span class=\"title\">A Walk in the Woods</span> by Lee Blessing are contained in this series. The subject matter of <span class=\"title\">A Walk in the Woods</span> made it especially appropriate for presentation in Washington, D.C.</p>"}
