A Successful Calamity is a comedic play written by Clare Kummer. The story revolves around the wealthy and eccentric family of the Van Middlesworths, who are facing financial troubles. In an attempt to save themselves from bankruptcy, they decide to stage a fake robbery of their valuable possessions and collect the insurance money. However, their plan goes awry when a real thief breaks into their house on the same night. Chaos ensues as the family tries to cover up the truth and protect their reputation. The play explores themes of family dynamics, greed, and the consequences of lying. A Successful Calamity is a lighthearted and entertaining play that has been enjoyed by audiences since its debut in 1917.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
