It's fascinating to see the development of the dramatist across the duration of this collection, from the tentative "King's Cross Station toilet" appointment of Ruffian on the Stair through to the all-out, balls-to-the-wall, door-slamming, cross-dressing farce of What the Butler Saw. 

A major talent lost too early.
