Smilin' Through (play)

Cowl also starred in the play in a double role and co-directed it with Priestly Morrison.

It included in the cast Orme Caldara as Kenneth and Jeremiah Wayne, Henry Stephenson as John Carteret and Ethelbert D. Hales as Dr. Owen Harding.

It also played for a long run on the road, and was one of Jane Cowl's greatest commercial successes.

The story is a sentimental romantic tale of a young Irish woman, Kathleen Dungannon.

Her romantic attachment to Kenneth Wayne is opposed by her adopted father John Carteret, who bears the painful memory of his thwarted love for her aunt, Moonyean Clare.
