ALL FOR LOVE John Dryden
THE COUNTRY WIFE William Wycherley
THE WAY OF THE WORLD William Congreve
VENICE PRESERVED Thomas Otway
THE BEAUX-STRATAGEM George Farquhar
THE PROVOKED WIFE Sir John Vanbrugh
THE MAN OF MODE Sir George Etherege
When the bells of London rang for the king who had landed
at Dover—the last stage of his European exile—they also rang
in a new freedom for the English people; Charles II, lover
of music and entertainment, had returned. London's theatre
doors, closed for half a century by Puritan edict, opened again,
and Charles, witnessing a new kind of play, gave royal
sanction to the continuance of theatrical traditions, many of

Over the water Moliere had set all Paris laughing with his
polished comedies. Now England too was to laugh again and
Restoration comedy became its own unique and devil-may-care
self and lives for us today in its many revivals. Here then are
fine samples of Wycherley, Vanbrugh, Congreve and Etherege,
with plays of higher drama from Otway and Dryden. Vissza
