Title: 'This was a man'
Description: A light-heartedly satirical comedy, 'This Was A Man' follows a love triangle in which no-one really loves anyone at all. Edward is still married to Carol, despite her infidelities, which are a badly kept secret. His concerned friend Evelyn decides that Carol needs to be taught a lesson, and sets about seducing her in order to catch her red-handed. But Carol, though not the cleverest of socialites, is brilliant at games of the heart, and soon it is she who is seducing a very flattered Edward. Banned by the Lord Chamberlain for what was considered a too facetious treatment of adultery, the play was first shown in 1926 in New York.
