The Admirable Crichton is a comic stage play written in 1902 by
J. M. Barrie. It was produced by Charles Frohman and opened at the Duke of
York's Theatre in London on 4 November 1902, running for an extremely successful
828 performances. It starred Irene Vanbrugh. In 1903, the play was produced on
Broadway by Frohman, starring William Gillette. A 1918 film adaptation was directed by G. B. Samuelson. A 1957 film adaptation starred Kenneth More, Sally Ann Howes and Cecil Parker. The play was filmed twice for television, in 1950 and 1968. The play was also filmed in two more remote forms: the 1919 Cecil B. De Mille silent Male and Female, and the 1934 We're Not Dressing, a Bing Crosby vehicle. — Excerpted from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. |
