Adaptations
Opening
In the Zone opened October 31, 1917 by The Washington Square Players at The Comedy Theatre.[1]
1946 British TV version
The BBC produced a version in 1946. The cast included Bonar Colleano, Finlay Currie, Alec Mango and Jack Newmark. Broadcast live, the transmissions were not recorded, and as such it is lost.[3]
1957 Australian TV version
Шаблон:Infobox television A 1957 version of In the Zone was a very early attempt at Australian television drama, airing during the first few months of TV in that country.[4]
It was produced in Sydney and telerecorded/kinescoped for Melbourne broadcast (these were the only two cities in Australia with television at the time), and aired on ABC, and was broadcast in a 30-minute time-slot.[5][6]
Archival status is unknown. Most of the very early Australian television drama were adaptations of overseas stage plays, or new versions of works originally presented on the BBC in the UK. In the Zone was an example of both, as the play had previously been presented on the BBC during 1946. It is not known if the two versions used the same script.
