{"value"=>"<p>Included in this series is correspondence relating to salary and commission matters, claims against the agency, and against actors by the Brown brothers. Of particular note is the correspondence relating to the controversy surrounding the production <span class=\"title\">Chamberlain Brown’s Scrap Book</span>(1932). Equity ruled the production should be deemed a revue, thus limiting it to eight performances per week, while Chamberlain Brown and cast argued the show should be classified as vaudeville. Actors were ordered to give two weeks’ notice. The ruling was then reversed but the orchestra’s demands to be paid before performances ultimately closed the production one week after the victory over Equity.</p>"}
