First performed in 1921 at the Teatro Valle in Rome, it had a very mixed reception, with the audience shouting \"Manicomio \" (\"Madhouse \"). However, the reception improved significantly and in 1922 it played on Broadway at the Princess Theatre. The play starts with a group of actors preparing to rehearse for a Pirandello play. The rehearsal is interrupted by the arrival of six characters. One of then informs the manager that they are looking for an author. He explains that the author who created them did not finish their story, and that they therefore are unrealized characters who have not been fully brought to life. Initially, the manager goes to throw them out of the theatre, but becomes more intrigued when they start to describe their story.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Luigi Pirandello\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1849024618\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781849024617\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Benediction Classics\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/29\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.72lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.38d","brand":"Luigi Pirandello","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44077626228991,"sku":"9781849024617","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3e608c0b-5267-41bc-bc42-447fb8b024c6.jpg?v=1685470955","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/six-characters-in-search-of-luigi-pirandello-9781849024617","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
