The Orphan or The Unhappy Marriage is a domestic tragedy, written by Thomas Otway in 1680. It was first produced at the Dorset Garden Theatre, and starred Elizabeth Barry as Monimia, Thomas Betterton as Castalio, Thomas Gillow as Acasto, John Wiltshire as Paulino, as Ernesto, as Chamont, Thomas Percival as Chaplain, Margaret Osborne as Florella and Joseph Williams as Polydore. It precedes Venice Preserv'd and is therefore the first of Otway's two famous tragedies. Written in blank verse, it is the play that made Otway famous. The Orphan remained a stock piece on the stage until the 19th century. Thomas Otway was purported to have been deeply in love with Mrs. Barry, and it has been suggested that this play was inspired by this unrequited love.

- L'Orpheline ou le Mariage malheureux (The Orphan or the Unhappy Marriage en anglais) est une tragédie féminine, écrite par le dramaturge anglais Thomas Otway en 1680, dont le cadre se situe en Italie. Cette tragédie fut jouée pour la première fois au Théâtre de Dorset Garden, avec Elizabeth Barry dans le rôle de Monimia et Thomas Betterton dans celui de Castalio. Elle précède la Venise sauvée du même auteur, et constitue la première grande réussite d'Otway, celle qui le rendit célèbre. Certaines sources affirment que Thomas Otway, amoureux de Mrs. Barry, aurait spécifiquement conçu pour elle cette pièce et le grand rôle féminin qui l'accompagne. (fr)
