B. Priestley wrote a number of dramas during the 1930s and 40s, which have come to be known as his Time Plays.
[1] They are so called because each constructs its plot around a particular concept of time.
In the plays, various theories of time become a central theatrical device of the play, the characters' lives being affected by how they react to the unusual temporal landscape they encounter.
Dunne's theory involved an infinite regress of time dimensions and levels of the self and Priestley rejected more than the first few time dimensions, which were sufficient to explain both the passage of time and precognition.
