Items related to A Busy Day
A Busy Day is a love story, as well as a witty and wonderfully observed satire on class and greed by the most popular woman writer of her time. The scene is London in the summer of 1800. In the course of just one busy day, we are gleefully tumbled into a world of frustrated love, mistaken identity, snobbery, and downright vulgar bad manners.

About the Author:
Fanny Bureny (1752-1840), brilliant diarist and popular novelist, was an acute witness of the foibles and manners of her time. She was also a playwright whose best work for the stage was unperformed in her day.
Review:
'An uproarious and warm-heatred comedy... an eye-opener and a treat' Independent on Sunday 'A reebuke to those who assume that English theatrical comedy dropped dead in the century between Sheridan and Pinero' Guardian
