Mary's Wedding is a one-act play written by Gilbert Cannan in 1920. The play is set in rural Canada during World War I and tells the story of Mary and Charlie, two young lovers who are separated by the war. The play explores themes of love, loss, and the impact of war on ordinary people.The play begins with Mary reminiscing about her past and the day she met Charlie. As she recalls their courtship, the audience is transported back in time to a small town in Canada where Mary and Charlie first crossed paths. The two fall in love quickly, but their happiness is short-lived as Charlie is called up to fight in the war.The play then shifts back and forth between Mary's memories of Charlie and the present day, where she is anxiously waiting for news of his fate. As she waits, Mary reflects on the impact of the war on her community and the toll it has taken on her own life.Throughout the play, Cannan uses poetic language and vivid imagery to convey the emotional depth of Mary's experience. The play is a poignant exploration of the human cost of war and the enduring power of love.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
