Moore wrote ten plays, a number of them in connection with his involvement with the Irish Literary Theatre. Elizabeth Cooper was first performed in the Haymarket Theatre in London in 1913. That same year, Moore also adapted his groundbreaking novel Esther Waters as a play. Moore, who was notorious for constantly revising and republishing his work, rewrote Elizabeth Cooper as The Coming of Gabrielle in 1921.
About the author
George Augustus Moore (1852-1933) was a pioneering modern Irish writer. He had to fight against censorship early in his career. Despite the powerful forces arrayed against him, Moore succeeded in establishing realism as a legitimate literary mode. His best-known novels include A Mummer’s Wife (1885) and Esther Waters (1894).
