For Services Rendered The Letter Home And Beauty

Proud of his association with commercial theatre, rather than with drama as an art, Maugham amused and diverted his audiences with good stories and glittering sardonic wit, which made a permanent contribution to the English stage.

For Services Rendered is one of Maugham's most famous plays. Set on their house in a small country town in Kent, it details the doings of a solicitor and his wife, their married and unmarried family.

The Letter is the tragedy of a wife's infidelity set in Malaysia.

In Home and Beauty, a farce set in London, a woman finds herself the wife of two men and the subject of the affections of a third.
