The Beaux' Stratagem is a comedy by George Farquhar, first produced at the Theatre Royal, now the site of Her Majesty's Theatre, in the Haymarket, London, on March 8, 1707. In the play, Archer and Aimwell, two young gentlemen who have fallen on hard times, plan to travel through small towns, entrap young heiresses, steal their money and move on. In the first town, Lichfield, they set their sights on Dorinda. Aimwell falls truly in love, and comedy ensues. Foigard, a priest and chaplain to the French officer, is actually an Irish priest called MacShane (a sombre version of the stage-Irish stereotype).

  • Strategia gołych kawalerów (The Beaux’ Strategem) – sztuka teatralna autorstwa George’a Farquhara, wystawiona po raz pierwszy 8 marca 1707 w Londynie. Jest ostatnim utworem opublikowanym przez tego dramaturga przed śmiercią. Pisząc ją był już ciężko chory, do czego nawiązuje zresztą we wstępie do wydania książkowego, przepraszając czytelników za spowodowane jego niedyspozycją niedociągnięcia. Pod względem tematyki jest to farsa z elementami romantycznymi. (pl)
