Theatre Season Opens Wednesday at Ohio University

LOOK BACK IN AN ANGER will open the Ohio University Theatre season Wednesday and run through Saturday Oct. 24. The play, first produced in 1956, is credited with launching a new movement in drama and introducing the term angry young man. It features a young man who lashes out at his wife, his father in law, and his friend, and is praised as an exciting work by critics in the U S and England. Osborne has since written LUTHER and the TOM JONES movie scenario. Season coupon books are available at the Box Office for this and eight other University Theatre offerings.
