scopecontent

{"value"=>"<p>This series contains correspondence, including opening night telegrams, programs, scripts, contracts, production materials, and clippings for Group Theatre productions, mostly for those in which Ms. Barker appeared. These materials are for both New York and out of town productions. Productions represented are <span class=\"title\">The Case of Clyde Griffiths</span>(1936), <span class=\"title\">Gold Eagle Guy</span>(1934),<span class=\"title\"> The House of Connelly</span> (1931), <span class=\"title\">Johnny Johnson</span> (1936), <span class=\"title\">Men in White</span> (1933), <span class=\"title\">1931</span>(1931), <span class=\"title\">Night Over Taos</span> (1932), <span class=\"title\">Paradise Lost</span> (1935), <span class=\"title\">Success Story</span> (1932), <span class=\"title\">Till the Day I Die/Waiting for Lefty</span>(1935), and <span class=\"title\">Weep for the Virgins</span>(1935). Ms. Barker did not appear in <span class=\"title\">Johnny Johnson</span> <span class=\"title\">Waiting for Lefty</span> or, <span class=\"title\">Paradise Lost</span>, so the materials for those productions are mostly scripts or sides. The most thoroughly documented production is<span class=\"title\"> The House of Connelly</span>, the Group Theatre’s first production and a success.</p>"}
