Memoirs of the Life and Writings of Mrs Frances Sheridan

Memoirs of the Life and Writings of Mrs Frances Sheridan

Frances Sheridan (1724–66) won acclaim in her day as both a playwright and novelist. Her most famous work, the sentimental novel Memoirs of Miss Sidney Bidulph (1761), found favour with Samuel Johnson, while her comedy The Discovery (1763) was staged by David Garrick at Drury Lane. Her fame was later eclipsed by that of her son, the playwright and politician Richard Brinsley Sheridan (1751–1816). Written by Alicia Lefanu (1791–c.1844), her granddaughter, this 1824 publication reaffirms the significance of Frances Sheridan's own work as a writer. Recounting her successes and incorporating her own recollections, the book reveals a woman admired both for her literary output and for her character. This work also includes reflections on the life of her son, whose early writing was influenced by that of his mother. Thomas Moore's two-volume biography of Richard Brinsley Sheridan has also been reissued in this series.

St. Frances and the Fallen Angels

St. Frances and the Fallen Angels

Carolyn Gage

2023
pokkari
This is a play about the forces of greed and capitalism versus the resilience of organized labor. It is a play about the richest woman in America partnering the woman who represented the working class of the entire nation. It is a play about achieving the impossible, about rising from the ashes-literally, about the power of our remembered history, and about the genius that emerges when the ethos of individualism surrenders to the brilliance of the collective. St. Frances and the Fallen Angels joins a panoply of seasonal holiday plays that combine social justice issues with the supernatural: It's a Wonderful Life, A Christmas Carol, and Amahl and the Night Visitors.
