Summary:A comedy about a famous playwright whose second wife is trying to merge "worthy causes" with her art as an actress. She has met a "political prisoner" Brodie, who has written an inept play about how property is theft, about how the state stifles the Rights of the Individual, etc. The playwright finally convinces his wife that Brodie is, in fact, a thug.
