Title: A Will and No Will or a Bone for the Lawyers Author: Charles Macklin Narrator: LibriVox Volunteers Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 1 hour 28 minutes Release date: January 1, 2017 Genres: Theatre & Radio Publisher's Summary: This "Afterpiece" - a short play to follow a main production - was first produced in 1746. It was based on Regnard's five-act comedy le Legetaire Universel (1707), which is itself a composite of Italian comedy with echoes of Molière, moving from scene to scene with little effort at logical consistency or structure but treating each scene autonomously for its own comic value. The rather long Prologue to A WILL AND NO WILL (11 pages of manuscript) makes fun of the convention of the eighteenth century prologues by the familiar dodge of having actors chatting as though they were in the Pit waiting for the actors in the preceding main play to dress for the afterpiece. - Summary from Introduction
