Sách nói: Cabinet Minister

Mr. Pinero holds that farce should treat of probable people placed in possible circumstances, but regarded from a point of view which exaggerates their sentiments and magnifies their foibles. In this light it is permitted to this class of play, not only to deal with ridiculous incongruities of incident and character, but to satirise society, and to wring laughter from those possible distresses of life which might trace their origin to fallacies of feeling and extravagances of motive. - Summary by Introduction Cast list: Right Honorable Sir Julian Twombley, GCMG, MP (Secretary of State for the \_\_\_\_ Department): [ToddHW](https://librivox.org/reader/6754) Lady Twombley: [Sonia](https://librivox.org/reader/10179) Brooke Twombley (their son): [Tomas Peter](https://librivox.org/reader/10789) Imogen (their daughter): [Leanne Yau](https://librivox.org/reader/10614) Dowager Lady Countess of Drumdurris: [TJ Burns](https://librivox.org/reader/11790) Lady Euphemia Vibart (her daughter): [Devorah Allen](https://librivox.org/reader/11084) Earl of Drumdurris (in the Guards): [Scott Kelley](https://librivox.org/reader/11998) Egidia, Countess of Drumdurris: [Jael Baldwin](https://librivox.org/reader/10303) Lady Macphail: [Beth Thomas](https://librivox.org/reader/6281) Sir Colin Macphail of Ballocheevin (her son): [Chuck Williamson](https://librivox.org/reader/7079) Valentine White (Lady Twombley's nephew): [Kurt](https://librivox.org/reader/11585) Honorable Mrs. Gaylustre (a young widow trading as Mauricette et Cie, 17A Plunkett Street, Mayfair: [Linda Olsen Fitak](https://librivox.org/reader/11772) Mr. Joseph Lebanon: [Son of the Exiles](https://librivox.org/reader/8879) Mr. Melton (Sir Julian's Private Secretary): [Craig Franklin](https://librivox.org/reader/11305) The Munkittrick: [alanmapstone](https://librivox.org/reader/7170) Miss Munkittrick: [Eva Davis](https://librivox.org/reader/11417) Probyn (a servant): [DrPGould](https://librivox.org/reader/11651) Angele, a French nurse: [Sandra Schmit](https://librivox.org/reader/10087) Stage Directions: [Larry Wilson](https://librivox.org/reader/8425) Edited by: [ToddHW](https://librivox.org/reader/6754)
