Description
In an unfinished letter, Sowdon expresses his dissatisfaction with Barry's behavior as a member of the theatre company, including his failure to inform Sowdon and deputy manager Mr. Victor in a timely manner of what plays shall be performed, causing loss of rehearsal time and embarrassment for the theatre in its advertisements. The second page of the letter is blank.
