Abstract
At the 1983 conference of the Association for Canadian Theatre History in Vancouver, Lois Reynolds Kerr recalled her own career as a successful awards-winning playwright and the founding of the Playwrights Studio Group, which was established in 1932 and continued to produce plays at Hart House Theatre and the Dominion Drama Festival until 1941. Other playwrights of the Playwrights Studio Group of Toronto included Dora Conover and Winnifred Pilcher, who also contribute their memoirs to this article, Leonora McNeilly, Rica McLean Farquharson, Virginia Coyne Knight, Marjorie Price, Margaret Ness, Jameson Field and Arthur Burrows. Actors and directors involved with Hart House Theatre contributed their talents to the biannual productions, making the Playwrights Studio Group one of the first Canadian organizations dedicated to playwriting.
