Considered a true modern classic, "Johnny Be linda” enjoyed an immediate and long run success on Broadway and was later made into an award winning motion picture. The play is laid on a bleak island located south of New foundland and northwest of Nova Scotia. Here the summers are short and the winters long and harsh. It is inhabited by a hard-bitten raceofScotch-lrish farmers who divide their time between fishing and tilling the stubborn soil. The whole family from Grandmother to the child ren share in the labors of the farm and the only diversions from everyday toll are the Sun day-school picnic and the dances at the schoolhouse where the local fiddler supplies tunes inherited from Ma father It is from this highly religious community where church-going is all but compulsory that our characters for "Johnny Be linda" arise.
