The Apprentice: A Farce In Two Acts is a play written by Arthur Murphy in 1756. The story revolves around the character of Dick, an apprentice who dreams of becoming a wealthy merchant. However, his ambition leads him to make some poor decisions, including borrowing money from a loan shark to impress his boss's daughter. As the plot unfolds, Dick's plans unravel, leading to a series of comical mishaps and misunderstandings. The play is a classic example of a farce, with exaggerated characters, improbable situations, and witty dialogue. It also explores themes of social class, ambition, and the consequences of one's actions. Overall, The Apprentice is a humorous and entertaining play that has been enjoyed by audiences for centuries.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
