Description London revival in 1943. On 4 June 1943 there was 'an Australian night Australian members of Parliament were present, as well as Mr. Attlee, Admiral Evans and other well-known figures with associations with Australia ... The principal parts in the play were taken by Australians ... The Australian references, which were specially inserted last night, raised scattered laughs from Australians in the audience, which greatly puzzled the remainder of those in the theatre.'
