She Stoops to Conquer; Or, The Mistakes of a Night

Oliver Goldsmith was one of the most popular 18th century English writers , poet and playwright, made famous by such works as the series of essays "The Citizen of the World, or, Letters from a Chinese Philosopher", the poem "The Deserted Village" , the novel "The Vicar of Wakefield", and the play "She Stoops to Conquer ".
"She Stoops to Conquer" is a charming comedy that was first performed in London in 1773. Two well-bred young men arrive at the country estate of Mr. Hardcastle, intending to court his daughter Kate and her cousin Constance, but when local mischief-maker Tony Lumpkin plays a practical joke on the two urbanites, the Hardcastle household is launched into a dizzying, deliciously frothy romp that examines romance and social manners as well as the art of love.
