The Dangerous Age by Henry Vernon Esmond (30 November 1869 ? 17 April 1922). First produced as ?The Dear Fool?, at the Lyceum Theatre in Edinburgh, on 4th December 1913 and under this title at the Vaudeville, on 5th May 1914. As well as being the author, Esmond appeared in the play with his wife, Eva Moore. This is a flyer for the Vaudeville and asks "When is The Dangerous Age" with a streak of lightening and large question mark. "Every Evening at 9" is the answer. The reverse has admiring press comments, one of which refers to ?a flavour of Thackeray?.
