Description
"Baby Mine" by Margaret Mayo is a farce comedy play that debuted on Broadway in 1910. When young newlyweds Zoie and Alfred Hardy separate over their disagreements about having children, Zoie hatches an outrageous scheme to win back her baby-loving husband: she'll borrow an infant and claim it's theirs. But when the borrowed baby's mother has second thoughts, a frantic scramble ensues to find a replacement before Alfred arrives home. The play became a hit with audiences, sparking multiple film adaptations despite its daring subject matter. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
