"Driftwood" ran from January 15 to March 1 1959 at the Garret Theater, 49thStreet, NYC, which was, literally, the garret/ attic of playwright Maurice Tei Dunn's 55th floor apartment, into which he fitted forty seats. Although Joan Rivers frequently repeated the story dramatized here, Dunn recalled that his play contained no lesbian scene, and indeed Rivers and Barbra Streisand shared no scenes.
