Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Weaker Sex: A Comedy in Three Acts Although "The Weaker Sex" was produced in London but a month before "The Profligate" first saw the light, and just a year after "Sweet Lavender," it really belongs to an earlier period of Mr. Pinero´s work ;indeed, its composition may be said to date between "Lords and Commons" and the Court series of farces. It was this play, as I have stated elsewhere, that Mr. Pinero offered to Mr. John Clayton and Mr. Arthur Cecil when in the winter of 1884 they appealed to him in their sore need for a piece, their management of the Court being at that time in anything but a flourishing condition; and it was only Mr. Clayton´s uncertainty about "The Weaker Sex" that led to Mr. Pinero offering "The Magistrate" in its place, a turn of events which proved most fortunate for the Court management. Meanwhile, "The Weaker Sex" was laid by for about four years, when Mr. and Mrs. Kendal secured the rights of the play, and produced it tentatively at the Theatre Royal, Manchester, on September 28, 1888.
