Well, gentle readers, that's what happened to me last weekend. I went to see a play on Friday night, and another one Saturday evening. And that is where the similarity ends. The two works friends, then lovers. Hellman suffered nei- have virtually nothing in common, and yet ther friends nor lovers gladly, and the rela- each is ultimately very satisfying in its own tionship was rocky from the start. way. On Friday I went to see Cakewalk at Theater LaB Houston. Cakewalk is about the last years in the life of Lillian Hellman, one of our premier twentieth-century play- wrights (The Children's Hour, The Little Foxes). It was written by Peter Feibleman, a lover of Hellman's who was 20 years her junior and who remained with her, more or less, until her death in 1984. Cakewalk is about the "more" and the "less." Hellman's life was never a cakewalk. Famous, or infamous, for saying exactly what she thought, Hellman charged through one cri- sis after another. She was born of Jewish parents in New Orleans in 1905, and at 20 she married the playwright Arthur Kober. Seven years later, she divorced him and began a long relationship with the writer Dashiell Hammett, who was probably the one great love of her life, but not the only one.

The years you feel good. immediately following WWII in America were a strange and unsettled time, blurred somewhat by nostalgia. This was the pe- riod that gave us film noir, the Cold War and the House Un-American Activities Committee. It was a period of transition, and although we now look back on the time with a "good old days" sigh, things were not always what they seemed. Actually, they never are. Good Housekeeping is the story of an American family, headed by father and uni- versity president Charles Burnett, played by Kent Johnson. His quiet life is disturbed by his wife Marian, portrayed by Theo Lane Moffet, and his teenage daughters, Christine and Katy, played by Stefanie Paige Friedman and Sara Macaluso, re- spectively. Marian is the central character, and while she is still drawn as the "help- mate," she has a touch of Lucy in her. The girls are grown, a maid runs the house and Marian has nothing to do. Instead of set- tling for a quiet decline into her twilight years, she searches for something to do to
