All's A Delusion: A Comedy, In Five Acts is a play written by John Ollivier and published in 1847. The play is a humorous take on the theme of mistaken identity and centers around the character of Charles, a young man who is mistaken for his wealthy and influential cousin, Lord Dalgarno. Charles is thrust into high society and must navigate the complex social dynamics of the upper class while trying to maintain his true identity. Along the way, he encounters a cast of eccentric characters, including a scheming aunt, a lovestruck suitor, and a group of bumbling servants. The play is filled with witty dialogue, slapstick humor, and a healthy dose of satire aimed at the social mores of Victorian England. All's A Delusion is a delightful and entertaining play that offers a glimpse into the world of 19th-century comedy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
