Cast Notes...Onslow Stevens...who plays opposite Miss Pitts in the role of “Big Ed” McKeever is one of that rare breed of theatrical gentlemen who refuse to adhere to “type” vogues in any entertainment medium, who can be as effective as the “heavy,” convincingly palpitating as the “heartbeat” and, always, one of the top quality actors in the American theatre. The Playhouse is deeply indebted to Universal - International Pictures for allowing Onslow to return his alma mater, granting him time-off from his contract chores for this engagement. He graduated from the Playhouse College of Theatre in the first class, went on to Broadway and then returned to contract at Universal Pictures after scoring his first major hit in their “Once in a Lifetime.” Opposite Elizabeth Bergner in “The Two Mrs. Carrolls,” “Eastward in Eden,” “Candida,” with Cornelia Otis Skinner, “Stage Door,” and “Little Red Schoolhouse” are among his many New York appearances. On the television front Onslow has appeared in “Cavalcade of America,” Revue, Medic, Lux Video, Star and the Story and always, his series unit called “This Is the Life” in which he appears in each issue. His latest films include “Tribute to a Badman,” Outside the Law,” “Ethan Frome,” “They Knew What They Wanted,” “The Happy Time” and a host of others. Tobin Seymour... as T. John Blessington, has the important role of the new president of the giant General Products Corporation, with which Miss Pitts tangles in her role as Laura Partridge. As such, he is one of the hour ogres of Big Business lampooned by the comedy’s authors, Howard Teichmann and George S. Kaufman. His broad acting background includes stage, screen and television. On the legitimate stage, he has been both an actor and a director. He spent four seasons in these capacities with the late Margo Jones in her famous professional “Theatre in the Round” in Dallas, Tex. During that time he directed such diverse types of plays as Sean O’Casey’s “Cock a Doodle Dandy” and “Romeo and Juliet.” He has played in roles ranging from Archie Kramer in the original production of Tennessee Williams’ “Summer and Smoke,” Orsino in “Twelfth Night” and Lucentio in “The Taming of the Shrew.” He directed the Broadway revival of Mary Roberts Rinehart’s “The Bat” at the National Theatre. He also directed Vincent Price in “The Cocktail Party” and Ruth Chatterton in “The Little Foxes” at the Sombrero Theatre in Phoenix. In 1953 he directed “Serenata,” an original outdoor drama written by Paul Green for the annual Santa Barbara Fiesta. Mr. Seymour’s film roles have included the part of Steve in the Allied Artists picture, “Las Vegas Shakedown,” and that of the chief of the office of secret investigations in the current picture, “Toughest Man Alive.” On TV he played the Cuban General Callazo in the “Message from Garcia” episode of Cavalclade of America. He will soon be seen as Braddock in an episode of “Wild Bill Hickok” with Guy Madison and Andy Devine. Jason Johnson...another of the Big Business tycoons upset by Miss Pitts, plays the role of Clifford Snell, General Products treasurer and the man who sits at the board of directors’ table smugly voting 750,000 proxies on everything that comes up. Mr. Johnson is one of the founder-members of Arena Theatre in Long Island. He has been an actor in radio, stock, legitimate theatre (Continued on page 11) 6
