Inconstant

Subtitled "The Way to Win Him:, this play is placed in Paris - a change from many others of Farquhar's plays which used English settings - though still presented to the same English audience. "This comedy ... had a reception, on the first night of its appearance, far inferior to that of his other productions. It was, with difficulty, saved from condemnation; and the author ... boldly charged some secret enemies with having attempted its destruction." (I can sympathize with the author; I think this play is as complex and funny as all his rest. - thw) - Summary by ToddHW and Mrs Inchbald, a critic of the 1800s Cast list: Old Mirabel: ToddHW [https://librivox.org/reader/6754] Young Mirabel: Tomas Peter [https://librivox.org/reader/10789] Captain Duretete: Craig Franklin [https://librivox.org/reader/11305] Dugard: Nemo [https://librivox.org/reader/11535] Petit: Eva Davis [https://librivox.org/reader/11417] Bravo 1: alanmapstone [https://librivox.org/reader/7170] Bravo 2: tovarisch [https://librivox.org/reader/8169] Bravo 3: Chuck Williamson [https://librivox.org/reader/7079] Bravo 4: Son of the Exiles [https://librivox.org/reader/8879] Oriana: Leanne Yau [https://librivox.org/reader/10614] Bisarre: Sonia [https://librivox.org/reader/10179] Lamorce: Rapunzelina [https://librivox.org/reader/6924] Lady: Availle [https://librivox.org/reader/4174] Page: Sandra Schmit [https://librivox.org/reader/10087] Stage Directions: Kalynda [https://librivox.org/reader/1649] Edited By:  ToddHW [https://librivox.org/reader/6754]
