Or
Virtue in Danger, Vanbrugh's first play (1696). A tale of two marriages, one about to fail and the other about to start. Restoration comedy at its best. Lord Foppington, who has recently bought his peerage, arranges to marry a wealthy country heiress to go with it. But before he can meet her, his younger brother arrives on the scene pretending to be him. Meanwhile, Loveless, a reformed philanderer, arrives in London from the country with his loyal wife Amanda, and they find themselves swept up the intrigues of their friends, Berinthia and Worth.
