I really didn’t enjoy this play for the first half because I had no idea or context for the story. I got smart about halfway though and read a recap of the play and it went much better from there on. It was entertaining once I got the plot and got used to the language.

I feel like a jerk and a philistine having been a drama major and not having enjoyed this. This may be one of those plays that is much better seen than read.

This is a lovely little play and stands up well to the test of time, provided you're able to comprehend older-style English. I would enjoy seeing it performed, I think with a good cast and direction it would be very funny.
