Liliom

Liliom (1921). Ferenc Molnar's play, with fantastic overtones, which told of the star‐crossed romance of a carnival barker and a serving girl, was first produced in America by the Theatre Guild at the Garrick Theatre in 1921 and ran for three hundred performances. Joseph Schildkraut and Eva Le Gallienne were the principals. It has been revived on several occasions and was the source of the 1945 musical Carousel.
