Much of the action in this play is driven by Professor Hobhouse, though he never appears on stage. In the first scene of act one, we meet an apple-seller Piny and Lucia who is prevented from playing his barrel organ by the police, while the next scene begins with a character attempting to fix his broken violin. The mentally unstable Judge Gaunt comes looking for Garth, and when Shadow fails to kill him, he's shot and thrown in a river by the gangster Trock. At the end, the young ►lovers Mio and Miriamne vow to expose the truth but are brutally gunned down. FTP, name this 1935 play inspired by the case of Sacco and Vanzetti, a work by Maxwell Anderson.
