First staged in 1906, this is a medical satire concerning a group of doctors torn between acting professionally and feathering their own nests with unnecessary procedures. Sir Ridgeon has the most difficult quandary in deciding which of two lung patients to save with his new, but limited, cure for tuberculosis: a nice, old doctor or a slimy young artist whose wife Sir Ridgeon desires for himself?
