LUCINDA SPEAKS

Reading edition

A Comedy in Two Acts

By Gladys Ruth Bridgham

Eight women. Scene, an interior; costumes, modern. Plays an hour and a quarter. Isabel Jewett has dropped her homely middle name, Lucinda, and with it many sterling traits of character, and is not a very good mother to the daughter of her husband over in France. But circumstances bring “Lucinda” to life again with wonderful results. A pretty and dramatic contrast that is very effective. Well recommended.

Price, 25 cents
