Quintero's production of the play with Geraldine Page, opened March 11th, 1963, at the Hudson Theatre in New York City. Columbia Masterworks Records issued a recording of the production as a five LP set which was nominated for a Grammy in the Best Documentary, Spoken Word Or Drama Recording in 1964.
