Product Description
Though otherwise self-assured, Catherine withers in the presence of her controlling father. Yet she draws a handsome allowance and stands to inherit even more. As the story opens, Catherine has attracted her first suitor, Morris Townsend. But her father quickly concludes that the young man is nothing more than a fortune hunter. Based on the Henry James novel Washington Square, the 1995 revival of The Heiress has received four Tony Awards.

5.0 out of 5 stars A lovely play, November 2, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: The Heiress (DPS Acting Edition) (Paperback)

James' "Washington Square" provides the basis for this adaptation of his novella. The story of Catherine Sloper and her romance with Morris Townsend provides not only good drama and well-crafted theatricality, but also paints a picture of a romantic love that is virtually unattainable in reality. Such notable actresses as Wendy Hiller, Beatrice Straight, Jane Alexander, Olivia de Havilland, and Cherry Jones have all played the role of Catherine. This is a marvelous example of the type of well-made made play that graced the Broadway stage fifty years ago.

5.0 out of 5 stars I love the numerous layers James uses to stimulate thought., September 15, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Heiress (DPS Acting Edition) (Paperback)

I am in the play presently and I play the main part Catherine, a girl of many personalities. The painfully shy insecure one around her father, the lover with her doting admirer, Morris, and the friend with her dear, sweet and hopelessly romantic Aunt Penniman. The various emotions and hidden meanings create a fascinating play with little bit of everything skillfully arranged in a captivating story.
