Bold Stroke for a Husband, A by Hannah Cowley (1743 - 1809)

By: breek
  • Summary

  • "Plays, where the scene is placed in a foreign country, particularly when that country is Spain, have a license to present certain improbabilities to the audience, without incurring the danger of having them called such; and the authoress, by the skill with which she has used this dramatic permittance, ... has formed a most interesting plot, and embellished it with lively, humorous, and affecting incident.... Here is contained no oblique insinuation, detrimental to the cause of morality—but entertainment and instruction unite, to make a pleasant exhibition at a theatre, or give an hour's amusement in the closet." (Mrs. Inchbald, 1831) Cast list: Don Cæsar: Adrian Stephens Don Julio: Greg Giordano Don Carlos: Alan Mapstone Don Vincentio: ToddHW Don Garcia: Jim Locke Don Vasquez: James R.
