| 520 | _a"A Vision of Venus; Or, A Midsummer-Night's Nightmare" by Harry Pleon is a farcical play presented in two acts and eight tableaux, written during the late 19th century. The work blends elements of comedy and fantasy, likely exploring themes of love, desire, and mistaken identity through the lens of humor. The plot is partly inspired by Anstey's "Tinted Venus," suggesting its narrative draws from mythological and romantic elements. The story centers around Alphonzo Latherum, a hairdresser who accidentally brings the statue of Venus to life after placing a magical ring on her finger. As Venus, who is awakened from a long trance, follows Alphonzo and claims him as hers, comedic confusion ensues. Alphonzo, already entangled in an affectionate relationship with Jane, must navigate the chaos that arises from Venus’s demands and the pursuit of antique robbers looking for the statue. Ultimately, the play culminates in Alphonzo's realization of true love and the comedic resolution of his relationships amidst the absurdity and farce surrounding the living statue of Venus.
