Post-apocalyptic dystopia (flooding). A play, with significant differences from the novel, was adapted by the author was based on the novel. After the Rain: A Play in Three Acts. London: Faber and Faber, 1967. U.S. ed. New York: Random House, 1967 with production photographs. There is a note in the U.K. ed. ([9]) detailing tree objections that the Lord Chamberlain, Lord Cobbold, then censor, objected to that had to be changed in performance. First performed at the Hampstead Theatre Club on September 1, 1966 directed by Vivian Matalon. As originally performed, the play was innovative in that the audience was seated so as to be part of the play. When transferred to the Duchess Theatre and then to New York, the seating was as usual. The Library of Congress holds the Playbill 4.10 (October 1967) for the production at the John Golden Theatre in New York City, which starred Alec McCowen (1925-2017), who had also played the role in London.
