Best Bets on Broadway
On & on & on go Life with Father, Oklahoma! and The Voice of the Turtle. Hits of the season:
Carousel. Charming, touching musical play made from Molnar's Liliom by Okla homa's Richard Rodgers & Oscar Hammerstein II (TIME, April 30).
The Glass Menagerie. Critics' Circle prizewinner, portraying a troubled, down-at-heel family, with the great Laurette Taylor superb as the mother (TIME, April 9).
The Deep Mrs. Sykes. George Kelly's acid portrait of a malicious woman that opens out into a group picture of mismated lives (TIME, April 2).
On the Town. Season's gayest, liveliest musical, about three sailors in Manhattan and their island fling (TIME, Jan. 8).
The Seven Lively Arts. Billy Rose's cultural zoo, chiefly notable for mockingbird Bea Lillie (TIME, Dec. 18).
A Bell for Adano. Eloquent tale of an A.M.G. officer who makes democracy work in a Sicilian town (TIME, Dec. 18).
The Late George Apley. Amusing period piece about a Back Bay Bostonian who had once been a human being (TIME, Dec. 4).
Harvey. Delightful fantasy of a gentle drinking man whose pal is a 6 ft.1 1/2 in. rabbit that he pulls out of his glass (TIME, Nov. 13).
I Remember Mama. Nostalgic turn-of-the-century saga of a picturesque Norwegian-American clan (TIME, Oct. 30).
Bloomer Girl. Stylish, tuneful Civil War musical, more concerned with feminists than with Fort Sumter (TIME, Oct. 16).
Anna Lucasta. Vivid, well-acted drama about a Negro streetwalker and her family (TIME. June 26).
