| about which Mel Gussow wrote: ''’The Bad Seed’ was, of course, the Maxwell Anderson thriller (based on the novel by William March), a Broadway hit in 1954. Though the play had its admirers, even in its time it courted self-parody. But it was never as laughable as Georg Osterman's lampoon, 'No Damn Good' (at the Home for Contemporary Theater and Art).” Osterman was a member of Charles Ludlam’s Ridiculous Theatrical Company and the cast included some members of that troupe. |
