Some of the pictures are very hard to get a good scan of. If you have any photos, please contact the webmaster through the Contact link. What we have tried to do is capture the feel of the play - not necessarily the ability to identify individual actors.
Never Too Late
Is Summer Arthur Long's rollicking old-fashioned domestic farce, Never Too Late. The story revolves around Harry Lambert, the middle-aged brash and opinionated owner of the largest lumber yard in town; his wife Edith, and old-fashioned girl who has always respond to Harry's every whim and has made a career out of making their home a comfy nest; their daughter, Kate, married, but still living at home (because how could she ever manage, without mom, to cook and clean?); and Kate's husband Charlie, who works in Harry's business, eats at Harry's table, and is generally the thorn in Harry's side. When Harry finds out he is going to be a father again, his stable, Harry-oriented world begins to whirl out of his control, and the hilarity is non-stop.
