...Prospects. Playwright Arthur (Death of a Salesman) Miller is working on an adaptation of Ibsen's An Enemy of the People, and the Theatre Guild is dickering for William Inge's Front Porch. Producers Rodgers & Hammerstein have scheduled Novelist John Steinbeck's Burning Bright, and Producer Cheryl Crawford has Tennessee (A Streetcar Named Desire) Williams' The Rose Tattoo on her schedule. By the time the season is half over, Broadway will probably be seeing Hollywood's Louis Calhern (in King Lear) and Olivia de Havilland (in Romeo and Juliet), besides such stage faithfuls as Dame...

...Producer. In her 18 years as one of the two regulars among Broadway's few women producers,* Regina's Cheryl Crawford has managed to combine hardheaded business instinct and high-minded theatrical taste. The results were more praiseworthy than profitable until she found a knack for offbeat musicals: 1942's revival of Porgy and Bess, 1943's One Touch of Venus, 1947's Brigadoon-her biggest hit, after some of the town's canniest producers had turned it down...
