Summary

"Sean O'Casey leaves his customary scene, the Dublin streets and tenements, and finds the setting for his new play in a public park in London. Here the nursemaids stroll with their charges before the admiring gardeners; the scarlet woman flouts the weak but well-meaning Bishop, the atheist and the dreamer argue together, while the down-and-outs tramp by, chanting their sad refrain. It is a drama of sin and virtue; of life and love and sorrow, with scorn for all shams and pious pretenses, a cheer for the brave sinner, and a sigh for the underdog."--Jacket.
