CIVIC THEATRE
SATURDAY AND MONDAY "Perfect Strangers," starrfng Robert Donat and Deborah Kerr, is the lid ripped off today's most dangerous domestic problem with verbal explosives of vitriolic candour! It's "Vacation from Marriage." Clemence Dane's sparkling play made into a refreshingly rare entertainment you dare not miss! Robert Donat plays to perfection the role of a punctilious clerk in a big office . . . mild and inoffensive . . . until he returned from the Navy . .. . brisk, smart, worldly, dreading the thought of returaing" to the wife he had left. While Deborah Kerr as his quiet, domesticated wife, whose idea of duty was to wait on him hand and foot . . . until she returned from the Wrens . . . enlighterned, determined on a divorce from the mild little clerk she had married, is the season's best performance.
