The Country Girl is a Play
Show Overview
‘The Country Girl’ is a play adapted from an original play by Clifford Odets which won an oscar for Grace Kelly back in 1954.
It tells the tragic story of Frank Elgin, a washed up, alcoholic actor who is no longer in demand and with only his wife believing in him; and then it seems his luck is about to change. At an audition, Elgin manages to impress Bernie Dodd, the Director, who wants to give him a chance, so despite opposition from Cook, the show’s producer, Elgin finds himself in with an opportunity to rekindle his career.
As rehearsals begin, Dodd assumes Elgin’s wife Georgie is responsible for him going off the rails. He doesn’t hide his contempt and talks about her behind her back and is rude to her face. What he doesn’t know is that Elgin has never recovered since the death of his five year son whilst in his care and Dodd could never know that Elgin is a a foul mouthed and demanding husband who has made his wife’s life a misery.
Once Dodd learns the truth, he realises that he has been harbouring strong feelings of affection for Georgie and after kissing her, he falls in love.
On opening night, Elgin is a success and his sudden elevation to star again leaves Dodd hopeful that Georgie can leave him without guilt, but instead she chooses to stay with her husband.
‘The Country Girl’ is a wonderful, warm play and its’ stars, Martin Shaw and Jenny Seagrove will undoubtedly do justice to Odets’ punchy dialogue and painful exploration of alcoholism.
