Foolish Notion
|
February 1945 |
A comedy written by Philip Barry, directed by John C. Wilson and starring Tallulah Bankhead. The story follows a woman who has lost her husband (Henry Hull) in the war, and so makes plans to marry her husband's best friend (Donald Cook). When the husband surprisingly reappears, all is turned upside-down and the woman must choose between the two men. The play was staged as a combination of reality and the fantasy imaginings of all of the possible outcomes, leaning heavily on the production design and lighting by Jo Mielziner. |
