Production
It was written by Monte Miller, the Police Prosecutor from Bathurst.[2]
Reception
The Canberra Times called it :a clever idea, and I liked particularly the bright opening with music, and the polished performance by Marcella Burgoyne.[2]
The Sydney Morning Herald wrote that "although the play's triviality was not enhanced by any notable show of wit the author has capably dressed up the little plot, with dialogue which consistently keeps the note of casual comedy. Most of the entertainment came from the delightfully relaxed acting of Wynn Roberts as the artist husband who quietly and amiably traps his rival in his wife's flat."[3]
