Plot Summary

In a theatre, auditions are being held for a new musical production titled The Land Around Us. Director Bernie Dodd watches a number performed by fading star Frank Elgin and suggests that he be cast in the leading role. This is met with strong opposition from Philip Cook, the show’s producer. However, Bernie insists on the down-on-his-luck Frank, who is living in a modest apartment with his wife Georgie.

Character Dynamics

Frank is actually a demanding alcoholic who is completely dependent on his wife. Initially Frank leads Bernie to believe that Georgie is the reason for the decline in his career, resulting in Bernie mistakenly blaming her for everything that happens during rehearsals, including Frank’s requests for a dresser and a run-of-the-show contract, first behind her back and eventually to her face. The real reason Frank’s career has faltered is his insecurity. When their five-year-old son Johnny was hit by a car and died while in Frank’s care, he was devastated. Bernie also believed Georgie to be suicidal and a drunk, when it is actually Frank who is both.

Resolution and Conclusion

Humiliated when he learns the truth, Bernie realizes that behind his hatred of Georgie was a strong attraction to her, and he kisses her. She tells him that it does not mean that anything has changed. Frank’s performance is a success on opening night. Afterward, he demands respect from Cook. Previously Georgie had said that if only Frank could stand on his own two feet, she could get away from him. At a party to celebrate the play’s opening, Bernie believes Georgie will be free to leave Frank and tells her that he loves her. Later, Frank tells them he has noticed their longing looks, and all three talk. Shortly after, Frank leaves the party. Georgie says goodbye to Bernie, and he tells her he appreciates a woman who is loyal. She kisses him lightly and goes to catch up with Frank.
