Opened in September 1920. Closed October 16, 1920 after 44 performances — 45 days. Poldekin is a 1920 play by Booth Tarkington. It is a four-act political satire with three settings and ten characters. The story concerns a Russian soldier brought to New York City to produce Bolshevik propaganda, who strays from his mission. Adverse audience reaction to the original ending resulted in Tarkington rewriting parts of the play during its opening tour. Wiki link
