Abstract
Christopher Fry was an English poet and dramatist who worked to restore poetry and humor to the modern stage. His 1948 play, The Lady’s Not for Burning, is a part of the quartet of comedies he wrote, which includes- The Lady’s Not for Burning, A Yard Of Sun, Venus Observed and The Dark is Light Enough. Each of the works in the quartet relates to a specific season of the year. Starting with spring, The Lady’s Not for Burning is the first and probably the most successful play of the quartet. The play is a romantic comedy weaved in three acts and set in the middle ages that is around the 1400s.
