(starring George Rigaud, Virginia MacWatters / 12 performances)
Despite favorable reviews in this try-out Boston run,
Mr. Strauss Goes To Boston opened on Broadway
Sept. 6, 1945
at the New Century Theatre
and closed Sept. 15, 1945, running (with matinees) only 12 performances.
As Theatre Arts magazine said, "..no amount of waltzing could redeem (it) from monumental boredom."
