This early work by Rachel Field was originally published in the early 20th century and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. ’Three Pills in a Bottle ’ is a short play in one act. Rachel Lyman Field was an American novelist, Poet, and Children’s author, born in New York City, United States, on 19th September 1894. Field went on to produce many works of both adult fiction, plays, and children’s fiction. Her most successful children’s work was Hitty, the First Hundred Years (1929), which received the Newbury Award in 1930, for the year’s 'most distinguished contribution to American literature for children.' This title, along with the posthumously published Prayer for a Child (1944), was named to the Lewis Carroll Shelf Award for being considered to belong 'On the same bookshelf' as Carroll’s Alice.

       “Some shows have warnings for strobe lights.

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

  • The Lady From Maxim’s
    Georges Feydeau / Laurence Senelick
       “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 ...
