Synopsis

""All The Comforts Of Home"" is a comedic play written by William Gillette and published in 1897. The story revolves around a wealthy businessman named John Garrison, who returns home from a trip to find his house occupied by a group of strangers. The strangers, who are actually members of his own family, have conspired to take over the house in order to teach Garrison a lesson about neglecting his loved ones. As the play unfolds, the family members engage in a series of hilarious antics to maintain their cover and keep Garrison from discovering their true identities. Along the way, they also confront their own personal issues and learn valuable lessons about the importance of family and communication. ""All The Comforts Of Home"" is a classic example of the comedic genre and features a range of memorable characters and witty dialogue. It has been performed numerous times over the years and remains a popular choice for theater companies and audiences alike.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
