Eden End – J. B. Priestley – Saturday Night Theatre

In the last week of October 1912 the family of Dr Kirby, a widower in the North of England, is disturbed by the unexpected return of Stella, a “prodigal daughter” who left eight years before in order to pursue a career on the stage.

Eden End is a play by J. B. Priestley, first produced by Irene Hentschel at the Duchess Theatre, London, on 13 September 1934.

The work premiered on Broadway at the Theatre Masque on 21 October 1935. The production starred Alexander Gauge (Wilfred Kirby), Edward Irwin (Dr Kirby), Edgar Norfolk (Charles Appleby), Wilfred Seagram (Geoffrey Farrant), Louise Smith (Lillian Kirby), Ruth Vivian (Sarah), and Estelle Winwood (Stella Kirby).

In 1974, the National Theatre’s production at The Old Vic starred Joan Plowright as Stella Kirby, Michael Jayston as Charles Appleby and Geoffrey Palmer as Geoffrey Farrant. The production was adapted for BBC Radio 4 that same year, described as a “stereophonic radio version”. (Wikipedia)
