Quality Street: A Comedy in Four Acts is a play written by James Matthew Barrie and first published in 1913. The play is set in the early 19th century in the fictional town of Quality Street, where two sisters, Phoebe and Susan, have been waiting for their love interests to return from war. However, when the men finally come back, they find that the sisters have aged and are no longer as attractive as they once were. In order to regain their youth and win the hearts of the men, the sisters decide to pretend to be their younger selves. This leads to a series of comical situations, as they try to maintain their disguise and keep up appearances. Along the way, they encounter various other characters, including a flirtatious woman and a pompous military officer.The play explores themes of love, aging, and identity, and is known for its witty dialogue and clever plot twists. It has been adapted for film and television several times, and remains a popular choice for amateur and professional theatre productions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
