2 Apr 1917	Theatre Royal, Stratford	Professional	Read Narrative The authoress has constructed a workmanlike play that could easily be adapted to conform with twice-nightly requirements. There is an interesting story, and the plot is cleverly developed. If there is one point to be urged against "Honour the Man You Wed", it is the lack of originality displayed, as in many particulars it is reminiscent of a melodrama that has done duty on the road for some time past. ('The Stage', 5 April 1917, p. 15)
