The Boy, a musical comedy by Fred Thompson and Percy Greenbank

The Boy, a musical comedy by Fred Thompson and Percy Greenbank, adapted from The Magistrate by A W Pinero, with music by Lionel Monckton and Howard Talbot. First produced at the Adelphi Theatre on 14 September 1917, it ran for 801 performances. The central joke is that, because his mother has subtracted years from her age, the boy is older than he is said to be, and so only too happy to be grabbed by the young women. Touring to the Kursaal, Bognor, production by MacDonald and Young. Date: circa 1918
