"Dandy Dick: A Play in Three Acts" by Arthur Wing Pinero is a three-act farce first performed in 1887. When a respectable clergyman rashly promises a thousand pounds for church repairs, his horse-racing sister suggests an unorthodox solution: betting on her racehorse, Dandy Dick. What follows is a comedy of complications involving secret wagers, meddling servants, disguised daughters, and a midnight visit to the stables that lands the Dean in a police cell, threatening his reputation and fortune.
