TOMORROW
THE WORLD
A Play by
JAMES GOW
and
ARNAUD D'USSEAU
This is the complete text of the sensational New York stage success of 1943. It is the story of a boy of twelve who was brought over from Germany to be adopted by an old student of his father's, whom the Nazis had killed. The play is taken up with the transitions that the suspicious, warped and perverse mind of the boy goes through in contact with the American family and life in a large university town in the Middle West. Burton Rascoe said in the "New York World Tele-gram" that the play "holds you breathless with excitement," and John Anderson, in the "New York Journal American" said, "In all the scores of anti-Nazi plays which have moved across the New York stage in the past eight years none, I think, has touched quite the level of fascination, revulsion and horror as
"Tomorrow the World.' The play quietly and with shattering effects lets us behold not only the physical violence of the Nazis, but the mental and spiritual violence they do to their own youth in their cunning hope to capture the future."
