The play was directed by Ken Hannam and it starred Roger Climpson and Helen Morse.[5]
The Bulletin called it "lively" with "a high standard of acting, diction, and intelligence".[6]
The Sydney Morning Herald wrote there was "some gracious acting" but added "regrets remain for the inadequate way in which everything else was presented".[7]
