It was a popular vaudeville act in the early 1900's (starring the two themselves), and was later made into a documentary. In 1959, it became a Broadway play, and then a popular film. Patty Duke (Aunt Eller in this year's Oklahoma) originated the role of Helen when this show first played Broadway.Note that Hilary Swank will not play Wednesday matineesOfficial Opening Night: April 24, 2003.
