Synopsis

Mrs. Temple's Telegram is a farce in three acts written by Frank Gunning Wyatt and published in 1908. The play is set in the drawing-room of Mrs. Temple's house in London and revolves around the comical misunderstandings that arise when a telegram is delivered to the wrong person. The telegram, which is intended for Mrs. Temple's husband, contains a message from a mysterious woman, causing Mrs. Temple to suspect her husband of infidelity. However, the telegram is actually meant for a different Mr. Temple, and chaos ensues as various characters try to keep the mix-up a secret. The play is filled with witty dialogue, mistaken identities, and comedic situations, making it a classic example of a farce. Overall, Mrs. Temple's Telegram is a lighthearted and entertaining play that will leave audiences laughing.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
