Trivia & History
The production was supposed to open in Philadelphia on the evening of Christmas day — December 25, 1947 — but it was postponed till the 26th.
The production was to have played in Philadelphia through January 10, 1948, but it closed there a week early. After Philadelphia, it was to have moved to Boston, with an opening there announced for January 12. January 29 had been announced as the opening date on Broadway. As there was a booking jam on Broadway at the time, no theatre had yet been booked.
It was announced that the show would be back soon, after some rewriting and recasting, but it never did come back.
