The Gay Lord Quex: A Comedy in Four Acts by Arthur Wing Pinero
"The Gay Lord Quex: A Comedy in Four Acts" by Arthur Wing Pinero is a comedy play written in 1899. It follows a notorious middle-aged rake who claims to have reformed his philandering ways and seeks to marry a young beauty. But her protective foster-sister, a sharp-witted manicurist, refuses to believe his transformation is genuine. When she attempts to expose him, a tense confrontation unfolds that will determine whether his redemption is
real—and who truly deserves the young woman's hand in marriage. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
