    Father Knows Best: The Housekeeper

    Father Knows Best: The Housekeeper

    Presented by Beowulf Alley Theatre Company at Beowulf Alley Theatre Company

    May 4, 2010

    Father Knows Best: The Housekeeper, was originally performed on June 22, 1950. This all-American family comedy success is geared toward all age groups, followed by one of radio's classic heroic-hero adventures. Father Knows Best ran on NBC Radio from 1945 to 1954, when it switched to CBS television. It starred Robert Young and June Whitley (later, Jean Vander Pyl) and went on to television fame with Young and Jane Wyatt. The show is often regarded as an example of the conservative and paternalistic nature of American family life in the 1950s and it is also cited as an overly rosy portrayal of American family life. The lead character changed on television from a sarcastic dominant head-of-house to a much more subdued and gentle hand.
