What's
This Play About? |
|
| Everyone
has a relationship with money, good or
bad, but it's there... Written
by a close friend of Charles Dickens,
Money is a warm, generous and frequently
hilarious comedy about the effects
of wealth, or lack of it, on people,
their friends and attachments.
Edward Bulwer-Lytton
had a deep social awareness and was
troubled by the divide between rich
and poor. His angry, radical ideas
were poured into Money. But the play
is more than just a piece of social
commentary, it is also that great
rarity - a genuine Victorian comedy. |
