Tea and Sympathy scrapped from Lawton stage in McMahon
MGM solved the script problem and the Robert Anderson play Tea and Sympathy will not be presented this month in the McMahon Memorial auditorium. Deborah Kerr was to lead the road show, with planned stops in Oklahoma City and Dallas. The film version proceeds with Kerr and John Kerr, following Hollywood censorship curbs over adultery and homoerotic subtext. The local program pivots to The View From Pompey’s Head and other films.
