The Cassilis Engagement is a play written by John Hankin that was first published in 1907. The play is a comedy of manners that satirizes the upper-class society of Edwardian England. It follows the story of George D'Alroy, a young man who is engaged to the wealthy and beautiful Cassilis. However, George is not in love with Cassilis and is instead infatuated with her cousin, the independent and unconventional Julia. When Julia arrives at Cassilis' estate for a visit, George must navigate the complicated social dynamics of the group and figure out how to break off his engagement without causing a scandal. The play explores themes of love, class, and societal expectations in a witty and entertaining way.THIS 52 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Representative British Dramas Victorian and Modern V2, by John Hankin.
