...appearances are deceiving. Accustomed since John Osborne's Look Back in Anger (1956) to a seemingly endless blossoming of new theatrical talent, Londoners now are suffering through a period of drought. According to TIME Correspondent Horace Judson, the crackle of sere and yellow revivals is in the air. Agatha Christie's The Mousetrap is still running in what is advertised as its "16th mind-boggling year."
