Miss Maude Adams as 'Phoebe Throssel' times PHOEBE Sergeant, I am wishful to scold you, but Quality Street A Comedy in four acts by. J. M. Barrie Illustrated by Hugh Thomson Hodder & Stoughton. Illustrations in Colour ACT I The Blue and White Room PHOEBE. "Quality Street" appeared in , one year before the production of Peter Pan, as Barrie was becoming somewhat of a sensation in the theatrical world. This four-act comedy is an adult fairy tale of sorts, brought to life by Barrie's charming imagination and ability to weave between reality and fantasy.

[1] [2] It was directed by George Stevens and produced by Pandro S. in 19th-century England, the film stars Katharine Hepburn and Franchot Tone.

An old printed image (the earliest known) of J M Barrie's birthplace and home at 9 Brechin Road in the weaving town of Kirriemuir (his fictional Thrums), Forfarshire, Scotland - Sir James Matthew Barrie, 1st Baronet (), was a writer, dramatist and story teller who is best known for his novel of Peter Pan, The Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up.
What Every Woman Knows is a four-act play written by J. M. Barrie. It was first presented by impresario Charles Frohman at the Duke of York's Theatre in London on 3 September It ran for performances, transferring to the Hicks Theatre between 21 . Quality Street has a quality history, it was first performed on Broadway by the immortal Maude Adams in and then made a silent film in starring Marion Davies and Conrad Nagel. I can certainly see why William Randolph Hearst thought this a good role for Davies. She could be both a crinolined heroine and also use her comic talents as well.
