Drawing Rooms, Second Floor, and Attics is a comedic one-act farce written by John Maddison Morton and first published in 1864. Set in a Victorian household, the play revolves around a series of misunderstandings and mistaken identities among characters vying for control of various rooms. Through clever dialogue and slapstick humor, Morton critiques social norms and human nature, ultimately restoring order amidst the chaos of romantic entanglements and absurd predicaments.
