Diplomacy (1878). The Victorien
Sardou drama was first offered in America by Lester
Wallack in an adaptation by Saville and Bolton Rowe. Its story centers on Dora, a poor girl who is married to Julian Beauclere after he had spurned the Countess Zicka. The countess steals an important document and implicates Dora in the theft. The play, which proved one of Wallack's greatest successes, featured H. J.
Montague as Julian, Maude
Granger as Dora, and Rose
Coghlan as the Countess. It remained a favorite for fifty years, its last important revival coming in an all‐star production in 1928 with a cast that included Margaret
Anglin, Jacob
Ben‐Ami, Charles
Coburn, William
Faversham, Helen
Gahagan, Rollo
Peters, and Tyrone
Power.
