The Man Who Came to Dinner

We recently discovered that Jason was appearing in a production of The Man Who Came to Dinner, the same play Dad had a role in as a high school senior in 1947. Above and below are the yearbook pages for the production (click to enlarge). His role was small--the boyfriend of the daughter, smaller than Jason's, who I understand played the father. I'm just a little disappointed Dad didn't have a role that required him to wear one of those Groucho Marx mustaches.

Apparently Dad also appeared in the chorus of the Mikado and presumably is in this picture, though its impossible to pick him up. What I wouldn't give for a close up of him in costume!
