Box and Cox: A Romance of Real Life in One Act.
"Box and Cox: A Romance of Real Life in One Act" by John Maddison Morton is a one-act farce first produced in 1847. Mrs. Bouncer, a cunning London landlady, secretly rents the same room to two tenants: Box, a printer who works nights, and Cox, a hatter who works days. Neither suspects the arrangement until Cox unexpectedly returns home early. When both men discover each other cooking their meals on the same gridiron, confusion erupts. What follows is a comic collision that reveals more than just a duplicitous landlady's scheme.
