==Plot==
The story follows Johnny Case, who is a corporation lawyer on Wall Street. He has a lot of financial prospects, but not a lot of social background. Before the start of the play, Julia, the eldest daughter of the Seton family, has met Johnny at Lake Placid. During the ten-day trip, they have fallen in love and are to be married. But there is one person who does not want the marriage this quickly: Julia's father, Edward, who questions Johnny's life's goal "to retire early and work late."
After Johnny makes $25,000, he plans to go away and enjoy while he is still physically capable. The stock market being what it is in 1928, the stocks keep climbing and climbing. Johnny achieves his goal and announces his plans even as Julia's father is announcing the engagement. Julia is upset at his decision; she wants a proper house in town and a place in the country. Now the woman Johnny met and fell in love with at Lake Placid is gone; she is just as materialistic as her father.〔http://theater.nytimes.com/mem/theater/treview.html?res=9800E1DB1E39F937A35751C1A963958260〕
