Summary:

The play is co-written by Kalisch and Gustav von Moser. The file contains materials related to rehearsal and performance, including a published copy (Berlin: Eduard Bloch, n.d.; Eduard Bloch's Theater-Correspondenz Nr. 74, third edition), and 5 handwritten role books, for the following parts: Schnubbe; Emilie; Kinne; Lademann; and Franz, Revierjäger. (The play has 2 additional roles: Eduard, Revierjäger; and ein Bauer.) The published copy, which might date from the 1880s, attributes music to A. Conradi. (No music is included here.) The role book for Franz is signed on the last page "Hirschburg," apparently by the actor of that name who was engaged in German-language theater in Philadelphia from the mid 1870s through the 1880s. All of the role books are labeled as the property of Theodor Bloch, who was active in German-language theater in Philadelphia from at least the early 1870s to the mid 1890s, first as an actor, and later as a prompter and proprietor of a theater lending library. (The collection's holdings of theater newspapers and playbills contain no reference to this play.)
