| Welcome to Retroville! It's 1941! | ||||||||||||||
| The Pulitzer Prize for drama was awarded to There Shall Be No Night by Robert E. Sherwood. Sherwood's wartime drama set in Helsinki in 1938 opened April 29, 1940, and galvanized Broadway and West End audiences. In the middle of their desperate fight for civilization, both Churchill and Patton made time to attend. Eleanor Roosevelt described, "an experience I shall never forget--a performance so perfect that I felt I was living in this portrayal onstage." |
