	Indiana Historical Society
		Will Geer, an actor and political activist from Frankfort, Indiana, was a deeply caring man whose social conscience grew as his acting took him from provincial road shows to the pinnacle of Broadway success.
		Geer, who was the fifth actor to take the lead role, stayed with the show for 623 consecutive performances until its close on 31 May 1941.
		In an ironic reversal of his circumstances twenty-six years before, Geer enjoyed near-reverential treatment from the assembled representatives and was hailed by Committee Chairperson Claude Pepper as a "great American." Sadly, this was to be one of the last in the series of noble causes to which Geer had dedicated his life.

	Santa Monica Mirror: On The Stage: Theatricum Botanicum: High Drama in the Woods
		To the casual passerby, Will Geer’s Theatricum Botanicum might appear to be nothing more than a minor roadside attraction, because when you’re driving through Topanga Canyon, the hand-painted sign that proclaims its existence is little more than a blip in your peripheral vision as you negotiate the canyon’s tricky curves.
		Will Geer—best known for playing the grandfather on “The Waltons” TV show — was an established working actor in the fifties, sufficiently well-known to be called before the most demanding and critical of audiences — the House UnAmerican Activities Committee (HUAC).
		The community of artists that Geer had brought together at his Topanga Canyon hideaway eventually began to disperse, but in 1972, when Geer was cast in “The Waltons,” he was able to bring the theater back together.

		Helmer Ellen Geer understands the thematic territory of this meandering legiter, and she has adapted it admirably to the vast, bucolic sprawl of Theatricum's outdoor setting.

		Of the Antrobus children, Gladys (Willow Geer) evolves quite nicely from a simpering child to a glowing young mother who is committed to following in her own mom's path, while in a far showier role, Jeff Wiesen instills a seething energy into son Henry, a malevolent malcontent constantly battling his father for acceptance.
