The Rajah (play)
''The Rajah; or Wyncot's Ward'' is a play by William Young which debuted at the Madison Square Theatre in New York on June 5, 1883.
The play is a romantic comedy where a hapless man becomes the guardian of his uncle's adopted daughter, and eventually wins her love.〔Burt, Daniel S. (The Chronology of American Literature ), p. 264 (2004)〕 Produced by Daniel Frohman at the Madison Square Theatre, it was panned by critics but had a successful run of 256 nights, before also being successful on the road.〔(The Drama ), ''The Critic'', p. 274-75 (June 9, 1883)〕〔Strang, Lewis Clinton. (Players and Plays of the Last Quarter Century, Vol. II ), p. 142 (1902)〕〔(6 June 1883). ("The Rajah." (review) ), ''The New York Times'' (critical and amusing review)〕〔(6 June 1883). (The Rajah (review) ), ''New York Tribune'', p. 4, col. 6〕〔(19 August 1883). (The Madison Square Theatre ), ''The New York Times'' (reporting that the continued success of the play is delaying any replacements, as well as road performances)〕 The play was Young's greatest success as a playwright; his other major success was the play adaptation of ''Ben Hur'' in 1899.〔
==Photographs==
''The Rajah'' was one of the earliest plays of which successful photographs were taken. Photographer Benjamin Falk took eight pictures, which were made available for sale. For the 100th performance of the play on September 11, 1883, a souvenir with all eight images was created. Among the set are photographs of the much-praised woodland scenery created by John Mazzanovich.〔Shields, Daniel S.

The Well Known Scenic Artist's Short But Varied Career ), ''The New York Times'' (Obituary for Mazzanovich notes that "some of the best known of his later works, done in connection with his partner and pupil, Homer F. Emens, were the ... beautiful brook scene in 'The Rajah'...")〕
