Mrs May

Examiner of Plays' Summary:

A more or less comic low-life sketch of the order made familiar in the “Sister to Assist her” of Mr Emney. The heroine is a bibulous fraudulent old monthly nurse, who is followed to one of her “cases” by the irate landlady, swindled by her out of some money and a pair of stockings. She disguises herself in her patient's dressing gown and “transformation” to hoodwink her pursuer, while she discusses her own misdeeds; and when the discussion take an awkward turn over the discovery of her empty gin-bottles she ends it by locking her adversary in the cupboard while she makes good her escape. Unedifying, but harmless: and Recommended for License. Ernest. A. Bendall.
