This series of records contains all files related to the production and promotion of The Nine Night by Edgar White. Directed by Rufus Collins, this is a play whose title refers to the Jamaican folk ritual the Nine Night, which is enacted as part of a funeral to guide troubled souls to paradise. This ceremony opens and closes the play, whilst the central story tells of a West Indian man who wants to return home. The character's disappointment with his style of life in England contrasts with his family, who have integrated into the system. He seeks refuge, and reminisces with his friend and confidant Ferret, eventually leaving for his homeland.
