Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Tales From the Dramatists, Vol. 3 of 4 [Of English dramatists, none have worked more earnestly, and few more successfully, for the stage than the two Colmans, father and son. George Colman "the elder" was born at Florence in 1732, his first play, "Sally Honeycomb," being produced in 1760, with great success. Of his many plays, "The Jealous Wife" and ´The Clandestine Marriage" were the most successful, and are those by which he is now best remembered. His son, George Colman "the younger," was born in 1762, and in 1785 succeeded his father in the office of manager of the Haymarket Theatre, which he had long held. He was as prolific a dramatist as his father, producing numerous plays, several of which still hold the stage. He was appointed Examiner of Plays in 1824, in which office he gave great offence to rival dramatists. He died in 1836. Of the many successful plays of the younger Colman, those best known to the modern theatre-goers are "The Heir at Law" and "The Poor Gentleman."
