In 1922 #Boston, an amateur theatrical group debuted an original work, "Dear Jane", one of the first fictional depictions of #JaneAusten; it was written by Eleanor Holmes Hinkley (1891-1971, TS Eliot's cousin) and directed by Virginia Tanner Green (1881-1950); both #Radcliffe alums, and both have new #wikipedia articles now. #Theatre #Austen @wikiwomeninred@bird.makeup
