The Old Ladies
by Rodney Ackland
Synopsis
This play was produced at the Booth Theatre in New York City, under the title "Night in the House."
In a tumble down house, three poor old ladies live out their lives in an imaginary past.
One lives in hopes that her boy will return; another, a spinster, exists only on tragic memories; while the third, a positive evil genius, frightens the spinster to death, The play succeeds in creating an extraordinary atemosphere of thrills and suspense, and is essentially a subtle bit of pure drama.
