From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sabrina Fair, (also entitled Sabrina Fair, A Woman Of The World) is an original Broadway stage play. A romantic comedy, it is set on the North Shore of Long Island approximately one hour from New York. The play was written by Samuel Taylor, and directed by H C Potter.
It ran for a total of 318 performances. It premiered at the National Theatre from November 1953 to May 1954, then it moved to the Royale Theatre from May to August 1954. This play is the basis for both the 1954 movie and the 1995 remake.
A revival of the play is being directed by Lance Norris at The Theatre Company of Saugus in November of 2006.
The chauffeur's beautiful and poised daughter is Sabrina. The title recalls John Milton's song from his masque Comus (1634):
