Question
The protagonist of this play is told “I’ve not the least desire to look at your tongue” by his wife as he tries to convince her he is not hung over. Stage directions describe a character in this play as dressed “with a decided bias towards the barbaric;” that character recently abandoned her project writing a memoir of Princess Palliatani. Later in this play, a maid drops a tray in shock after a gramophone starts playing (*) Irving Berlin’s “Always” seemingly on its own. While researching material for a novel called The Unseen, this play's protagonist encourages the Bradmans and his current wife Ruth to pretend to believe in the occult. Madame Arcati summons the ghost of Charles Condomine’s wife Elvira at a séance in, for 10 points, what Noël Coward play that takes its title from Shelley’s “To a Skylark?” ■END■
