"The following year" he met and fell in love with fellow-actress [[Margaret Sullavan]].  Her Wikipedia biography [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margaret_Sullavan here] states that both her and Henry were in the 1929 "undergraduate musical" ''Close Up''.  Since this was presumably while school was in session, it must have been in the Spring of that year.  It doesn't seem likely that Henry was performing as a member of the college, so perhaps this play had outside actors as well.  Margaret was then invited to join the University Players.

Henry Fonda made his Broadway debut as a walk‐on in 1929's ''The Game of Love and Death''.  The entry for [http://www.ibdb.com/person.php?id=40805 "Henry Fonda"] in the Internet Broadway database states that this play ran from Nov 1929 to Jan 1930 and that he next appeared on Broadway Oct 1932.  I would note of course that the Internet Broadway database is run by a bunch of maroons who want you to snail-mail or fax them corrections!  How last decade!
