The Private Secretary

''The Private Secretary'' is a 1883 farce in three acts, by Charles Hawtrey. The play, adapted from a German original, depicts the vicissitudes of a mild young clergyman, innocently caught up in the machinations of two irresponsible young men who are bent on escaping their creditors.
When the play opened in London the notices for the piece were hostile, and it was seen as a stop-gap in the schedule of the theatrical company presenting it. Despite these predictions the play ran in London for 1,469 performances. The critics found much more to praise in the performances of the cast, with particular praise for Herbert Beerbohm Tree as the meek clergyman, the Rev Robert Spalding. He was succeeded in the role by W. S. Penley, who received equally good notices, and played the part in several productions. The play was frequently revived in the first half of the 20th century, and was adapted for film in 1935.
==History==
The play was adapted by the young actor Charles Hawtrey from the German ''Der Bibliothekar'', a comedy by Gustav von Moser.〔 The play ran at the Cambridge Royal Theatre in 1883, was bought to London in 1884, and ran there until 1886. Hawtrey revived the play twice, in 1892 at the Comedy Theatre, and in 1895 at the Avenue Theatre.〔 His profits were estimated by ''The Idler'' to be around £100,000.〔Schumacher, p. 360〕
Actors who played the Rev Robert Spalding included Herbert Beerbohm Tree,〔"The London Theatres", ''The Era'', 5 April 1884, p. 6〕 W. S. Penley, and Frank Thornton.〔"The Drama in America", ''The Era'', 28 March 1885, p. 15〕 Edward Everett Horton played Spalding in the 1935 British film version of the play, directed by Henry Edwards.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Private Secretary )
