Hollywood star Lauren Bacall appeared in Goodbye, Charlie during the 1959-60 season. Bacall played a man who is reincarnated as a woman, to be taught a lesson by God on how it feels to be a woman mistreated by men like him. A film version starring Debbie Reynolds was released in 1964. (Photograph courtesy of the Theatre Collection, Free Library of Philadelphia.)
