Comments
At the time of this production, Claudia Morgan was starring on the radio series The Adventures of the Thin Man, which was recorded live every Friday evening from 8:30 p.m. to 8:55 p.m. As such, the curtain was held every Friday for Morgan, a situation that was eventually brought to arbitration. Morgan had to choose between the projects, and ultimately left the production a few weeks in to the run to continue with the radio series.
