Cast in order of speaking:
The year is 1910
Produced by Archie Campbell
This is unfamiliar Maugham, dating from 1910, when the writer of gay Edwardian farces was gradually turning into the wryer, more serious Ashenden. It is called A Tragic Comedy ' but it contains some of the most frankly melodramatic scenes Mr. Maugham ever wrote for the theatre, and in uncharacteristic larger-than-iife monster of a character in the shape of George Winter, originally acted by. Arthur Bourchier. Winter is a Big Businessman of the most ruthless sort, a tycoon who will sacrifice anything and anybody to achieve his ends; now, on the brink of his biggest hut most risky coup, he finds his success threatened by his wife and her family, who have rebelled and intend to expose him. Winter's attitude towards humanity is that nine out of ten men can be bought one way or another: the question is, what wiU happen if he meets the tenth man? This makes a 'strong ' play, with a background of politics and international finance: not, it will be gathered, Mr. Maugham at his most recognisable, but the dialogue is flecked with touches of wit which do in fact identify the author.
