Because of its ancient Greek characters and its Asia Minor setting, By Jupiter was something of a successor to the previous Rodgers and Hart hit, The Boys from Syracuse. The new work, which tried out in Boston under the title All’s Fair, was based on the 1932 play, The Warrior’s Husband, in which Katharine Hepburn had first attracted notice.
