John Bulls Other Island And Major Barbara Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from John Bull's Other Island, And, Major Barbara There was another reason for changing the destina tion of John Bull's Other Island. It was uncongenial to the whole spirit of the neo-gaelic movement, which is bent on creating a new Ireland after its own ideal, whereas my play is a very uncompromising presentment of the real old Ireland. The next thing that happened was the production of the play in London at the Court Theatre by Messrs. Vedrenne and Barker, and its im mediate and enormous popularity with delighted and attered English audiences. This constituted it a suc cessful commercial play, and made it unnecessary to resort to the special machinery or tax the special re sources of the Irish Literary Theatre for its production.
