''A Man Of Leisure: A Play In Three Acts'' is a play written by David Lowe and published in 1903. The play revolves around the character of Henry, a wealthy young man who lives a life of leisure and indulgence. Henry’s carefree existence is disrupted when his father dies and he is forced to take on the responsibilities of running the family business. As Henry struggles to adapt to his new role, he is forced to confront the harsh realities of life and learn the value of hard work and responsibility. The play is a commentary on the societal expectations placed on the wealthy and the challenges they face in reconciling their privileged lifestyles with the demands of the real world. Through its portrayal of Henry’s journey, the play offers a thought-provoking exploration of the themes of wealth, class, and personal growth. Overall, ''A Man Of Leisure'' is a compelling and insightful work of drama that continues to resonate with audiences today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

       “Some shows have warnings for strobe lights.

Blood in the battle for racial equality is no surprise, but f...

       “It seems to me that for fertility in droll inventions, the perpetual outpouring of unforeseen misunderstandings, for the inexhaustible gaiety of dialogue, Feydeau’s new play is superior to everything he’s written so far. The most astonishing thing is the sureness with which everything is controlled, explained, justified, in the most extravagant buffoonery. The cross-purpose...

       “Plenty of glamorous backstabbing, diva dissing and sexual double-crossing…has every right to claim the name Dynasty for itself.  But the title character in Betty Shamieh’s bouncy, bumpy comic melodrama is the real thing. A queen, I mean, and not just of the self-dramatizing type. Scratch that. She’s more than a queen. She’s a pharaoh, one Hatshepsut, who reigned over Egypt ...
