Four Cohens placed under receiver amid Cleveland court case
The four Cohens who played at the Lyceum went to Chicago Saturday under a Chicago court receiver who holds them in custody until a civil suit over their contract is settled. The case is novel, centering on whether actors’ talents can be treated as property, with receiver Brown authorized to return them to Chicago after the Cleveland engagement. The suit stems from a dispute with manager Behman of Brooklyn, who died before his contracts expired.
