Classes and Masses, or Ned and Nell (Classic Reprint): A Play in Five Acts: A Play in Five Acts (Classic Reprint) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

A compelling stage drama about class, courage, and a city’s working lives. This five‑act play follows Ned and Nell, two young figures caught between factory life, labor unrest, and the pull of a dangerous world around them. Rich and poor collide as workers strike, authorities arrive, and a crisis tests trust, loyalty, and what people are willing to risk for justice.

From the factory walls to crowded streets, the action sweeps through confrontations, brave choices, and moments of humor that humanize every side of the conflict. The book invites readers to watch how ordinary people respond when pressure builds—and how hope and cunning can change a night of fear into a turning point.
