Play
The Road to Yesterday
- by Beulah Marie Dix and Evelyn Greenleaf Sutherland
- at Herald Square Theatre (New York City, 31 December 1906)
To me, the play had the feel of madcap antics in Oscar Wilde’s The Importance of Being Earnest—but with time travel! In the play, a midsummer’s wish takes two travelers, Elspeth and Jack, from 1903 to their earlier incarnations of themselves in 1603. Happily, they return rather friendlier than they left. —Michael Main
Oh, dear Aunt Harriet! It isn’t sudden—really not! We’ve been engaged three hundred years!
