The State Forbids is a one-act play written by Sada Cowan. The play explores the complex relationship between a young couple, Jack and Mary, who are deeply in love but are forbidden by the state to marry due to their different social backgrounds. The play is set in the early 20th century and highlights the social and cultural norms of the time, which restricted the freedom of individuals to choose their life partners. The story unfolds as Jack and Mary try to navigate their way through the various obstacles that come their way, including the disapproval of their families and the interference of the state. The play is a powerful commentary on the need for individual freedom and the consequences of state intervention in personal matters. It is a poignant and thought-provoking work that raises important questions about the role of the state in regulating personal relationships and the impact of social norms on individual lives.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
