The Admirable Crichton

von J. M. Barrie

In this 1902 play, Lord Loam is a man who does not see class distinctions. His butler, Crichton, and his servants mingle with his tea party guests, to the embarrassment of all. Crichton, especially, disapproves of this conduct. But will they all feel the same “civilized" way when their party is shipwrecked on a desert island?
