FOUL PLAY. Drama in a Prologue and Five Acts. By Charles Reade. London. 1883. Printed by J. C. Durant, Clement's House, Clement's Inn Passage, Strand, W.C. But not published. 1 vol. Demy 8vo (5½ × 8½). Pp. 72. Grey paper wrappers, printed in black as title-page.
Note—This play was written in collaboration with Boucicault and produced early in 1868. It was attacked on the ground that it was pirated from a French drama: La Portefeuille Rouge. Reade hotly denied that he had read or even heard of this French play, and Coleman considers the denial to have been genuine enough. He is, however, less certain that Boucicault was not familiar with the supposed French original. Foul Play, as first acted, was later revived under different titles—The Scuttled Ship and Our Seaman. Perhaps the text described above and bearing Reade's name only is a different version from that produced with Boucicault. Of the text in collaboration I can trace no printed issue.
