CAUGHT IN THE RAIN

Caught in the Rain: translation

The 1906 farce byWilliam Collierand Grant Stewart, produced byCharles Frohman, opened on 31 December at the Garrick Theatre and ran for 161 performances. Collier wrote the piece to exploit his own comedic style and played the ostensibly misogynistleading manwho falls in love. TheNew York Timesreview (2 January 1907) found that "sheer excess of laughter" compensated for the negligible plot.
