Wilson and the Theatre Guild at the Empire Theatre, under the direction of Alfred Lunt. The New York production enjoyed 482 performances, opening 23 January 1946, and continued on the road to Chicago and other points. This play was an adaptation of Rattigan's earlier play, LOVE IN IDLENESS (1944), and the final version was not published in book form until the Samuel French edition of 1949. The supplementary leaves are devoted to props and inventories. A copy of the CHICAGO STAGEBILL for the road show has been supplied.
