The play is set in London and follows the lives of two families, the wealthy and the impoverished. The plot revolves around the marriage of the rich Mr. Wealthy to the poor Miss Pennyless, and the ensuing chaos that ensues. The play is filled with witty dialogue, clever satire, and a cast of colorful characters that represent various social classes of the time.
