Luigi Pirandello
Six Characters in Search of an Author
(Sei personaggi in cerca d'autore - 1921)
A COMEDY IN THE MAKING
English version by Edward Storer [New York: E. P. Dutton, 1922]
N. B. The Comedy is without acts or scenes. The performance is interrupted once, without the curtain being lowered, when the manager and the chief characters withdraw to arrange the scenario. A second interruption of the action takes place when, by mistake, the stage hands let the curtain down.
