Our Wives (play)

[1] A farce, Kraft and Mandel based their play on Ludwig Fulda's German-language comedy Jugendfreunde (1897).

All does not go according to plan, and a comedy of errors ensues as the professional and personal become entangled and they find their feeling for one another cannot be so easily put aside.

[6] The cast included Henry Kolker as Frank Bowers, Pamela Gaythorne as Wilson, Mark Smith as Harry Lyon, Isabel MacGregor as Margaret Lyon, Vera Finlay as Emily Martin, William Rosell as Sylvan Martin, George Graham as Melville Tatum, Gwendolyn Piers as Elizabeth Tatum, and John Findlay as Otto.

[1] Our Wives was adapted by composer Victor Herbert and librettist Henry Blossom into the 1914 Broadway musical The Only Girl.

[7] The Washington Evening Star compared the work to William Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing stating that Henry Kolker as Frank Bowers was a "Benedick modernized", and that the character of Wilson possessed the "woman's wit" of Beatrice.
