A play by Jerome K. Jerome.
From the Arts Theatre of London.
With Edward Stirling, Peggy Simpson, Ena Moon, Peter Copley, Arthur Burne
The Arts Theatre staged this play for the first time in England, but Edward Stirling has toured with it all over the rest of Europe and America. The play is concerned with a man who is roughly a combination of Scrooge and Faust, a miser who exchanges his soul for that of a sailor.
Edward Stirling is an actor, manager, and dramatic author who is particularly famous in Paris, where he successfully established an English company at the Theatre Albert I. He studied for the stage under the late William Mollison, and made his London debut at the Scala Theatre in 1914 in "Anna Karenina".
