It was at Threepwood that Wodehouse would first write about Psmith, and where he wrote A Gentleman of Leisure (1910) which, adapted for the stage for two successive productions within a short space of time, would star Douglas Fairbanks Sr. and John Barrymore, respectively.
[3] In 1911, Westbrook collaborated with Wodehouse in adapting the latter's short story "Ahead of Schedule" into another musical sketch, After the Show.
