Conversation Piece
Bernard Shaw's conversation piece. "The Dark Lady of the Sonnets,". Canterbury's choice, won the contest. It was a definite contrast to the others, all of which were very drab and "message-full," with brilliant lighting and Elizabethan costumes. The set was of the simplest but the characters were capable, again in contrast to the earlier actors, of using the entire stage—although the Dark Lady did ruin her exit by falling over her skirt while hurrying up steps.
