1961: Review of DORIC WILSON's "Babel, Babel, Little Tower." The play concerned a cop coming into the Cino to close a play. So loyal were the Cino patrons that one night one attacked the actor playing the cop and threw him out of the caffe.

1961: Review of DORIC WILSON’s “Babel, Babel, Little Tower”

1961 is the year DORIC WILSON says he saw burly MATT BAYLOR in a dress and lipstick tear telephone books in half in a monologue called "The Civil War." LANFORD WILSON says he saw it in a period that would have to be 1963 or 1964. The official Cino Schedule lists it as 1965. Matt couldn't place it in time. Possibly it was repeated. This photo of Matt in 1967 in a non-Cino play is shared by KEITH CARSEY.
