Description

Description from Project Gutenberg

"A Kiss for Cinderella: A Comedy" by J. M. Barrie is a play first produced in 1916. During World War I London, a young charwoman named Jane Thing cares for refugee orphans while dreaming of attending a royal ball like Cinderella. When a suspicious policeman investigates her activities, he discovers her innocent devotion to the fairy tale. The story blends wartime hardship with fantasy as Jane's dreams and reality intertwine, leading to an unexpected romance and revelations about identity and social class.
