From J. M. Barrie the creator of Peter Pan a play where hierarchy is brought into question. A system where a person's place is determined by birth and not by ability is tossed aside when a group of British aristocrats are suddenly stranded on a desert island. Crichton the butler becomes the leader of the group. A very shocking play when it was first performed in 1902. As we look at the play now the shock has diminished however it is still relevant to this day as an insight into the past and a look at the class system that is in place today.

Once a month, Lord Loam encourages his servants to enter the drawing room for tea. This ritual defiance of tradition disturbs Crichton, the butler, who regards the class system as "the natural outcome of a civilized society." When the entire household is shipwrecked and stranded on a desert island, a new social order emerges ― with comic results for master and servant. This classic English comedy, written by the author of Peter Pan, combines light entertainment with serious undertones concerning the class structure of British society during the early twentieth century. First produced in 1902, the play was adapted for radio and television and has been frequently revived on the stage.
