Spanning from a 1659 farce by Molière to a groundbreaking 1896 piece by Henry Blake Fuller exploring early LGBT themes, this collection features a variety of styles and emotions. Youll encounter a Gilbert play without Sullivans music and many other short masterpieces designed to make you laugh, cry, or perhaps do both simultaneously. Please note that while these plays were published before 1923 and are in the Public Domain in the U.S., some, such as those by Pinski, McFadden, and Wilde, may not be in the Public Domain in other countries. Enjoy this rich tapestry of theatrical gems!
