Play description
When first presented for a one-off performance on 11th October 1925, this adaptation of Russell Thorndike’s novel was attributed solely to Ivan Firth. By the time a revised version reached the West End in December 1927, it was credited as: ‘a play of adventure on the Romney Marsh, in the County of Kent, adapted (with the assistance of Ivan Firth) by Russell Thorndike, from his novel of the same name’.
