Dramatization of the author's novel of the same name.

"General John Regan was written in 1912 and first performed in 1913 in London. Since then much water has run under the bridge and the State of Ireland has entirely changed .... The whole apparatus of the play is now hopelessly dated, One can only trust that the joke on which the play is founded may survive the political institutions which formed the original setting. 'Crowns and Thrones may perish' but a good joke is immortal if it is a good one."--Author's Note.
