A SAMUEL FRENCH, LTD. TITLE
The Heir's Return
Short Play
Michael Kilgarriff
The Heir's Return! is an hilarious burlesque in which the
repetitive dialogue, mindless patriotism and fatuous plot of a
typical Victorian dramatic sketch are mercilessly guyed. Intended
for inclusion in an Old Time Music Hall evening the piece commences
with the late arrival of the not-too distinguished actor Mr D'Arcy
Hilliard and his slightly inebriated wife. After apologies to the
chairman they disappear into the wings, determined to give
the audience the thrill of a lifetime . . .
