Behold the Bridegroom is a three-act play written by George Kelly in 1927. The narrative centers on Antoinette Lyle, a sophisticated and affluent woman who, after returning from Europe, confronts the emptiness of her hedonistic lifestyle. Her encounter with a morally upright, albeit financially modest, young man leads her to a profound self-realization about her lack of character and the consequences of her selfish ambitions. Despite a noteworthy performance by Judith Anderson in the lead role, the play had a limited run of 88 performances at the Cort Theatre. This work exemplifies Kelly's critical examination of societal norms and personal ethics, themes prevalent in his broader oeuvre.
