The Dreamers: A Play In Three Acts (1915)

By Lennox Robinson

Book Overview

The Dreamers is a play written by Lennox Robinson and was first published in 1915. It is a three-act play that explores the lives of a group of young people who are struggling to find their place in the world. The play is set in a small Irish town and focuses on the lives of three main characters: Jerry, Sheila, and Peter. Jerry is a young man who dreams of becoming a writer, but he struggles to find inspiration and motivation. Sheila is a young woman who is torn between her love for Jerry and her duty to her family. Peter is a wealthy young man who is bored with his life and seeks excitement and adventure. As the play unfolds, the characters' dreams and desires clash with the realities of their lives. They struggle with issues such as love, class, and ambition, and ultimately must come to terms with their own limitations and the limitations of the world around them. The Dreamers is a poignant and thought-provoking play that explores the human condition and the struggles we all face in our search for meaning and purpose.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
