Radcliffe's Idler Players will stage "Getting Married," George Bernard Shaw's attack on marriage, in the Agassiz House theater tonight, tomorrow, and twice Saturday.
The Annex production will be a return engagement of the comedy to local stages. It was performed professionally for the first time in Boston in 1917.
At that time, Bostonians flooded Hub papers with letters protesting "the frankness of the play," in which Shaw attacks English marriage laws more or less obliquely. The premier performance also starred a Radcliffe graduate, Marjorie Eggleston, in the leading feminine role.
Leads
Virginia Carroll '51 plays the lead this week. Also on the cast are Jane Johnson '52, Connaught O'Connell '52, Martha Nichols '50, president of the Annex dramatic group, and Lydia Hurd '51.
Harvard actors are Jerry Kohn '50, Marvin Mazic '52, Norman Wexler '49, John Keough '52, Robert Berger '52, Sidney Ball '50, and John Simon 3G.
