Paul Pry (play) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Paul Pry (play)
''Paul Pry'' (1825), a farce in three acts, was the most notable play written by 19th-century English playwright John Poole. It premiered in London on 13 September 1825 at the Haymarket Theatre and ran 114 performances.〔 The play continued to be popular until the early 1870s. ==Synopsis== The storyline is centered on a comical, idle, meddlesome and mischievous fellow consumed with curiosity. Unable to mind his own business, he's an interfering busybody who conveniently leaves behind an umbrella everywhere he goes in order to have an excuse to return and eavesdrop. At the end, however, Pry becomes a hero for rescuing papers from a well that incriminate more serious troublemakers. ''Cherry Ripe'', the 17th-century English folk song to words by the English poet Robert Herrick, is adapted into the play.
