Strife: A Drama in Three Acts
"Strife: A Drama in Three Acts" by John Galsworthy is a play written in 1907 and first produced in 1909. At a tin plate factory on the England-Wales border, an unofficial strike drags on for months, causing desperate hardship among workers' families. As trade union representatives and company directors seek resolution, two uncompromising men face off: the elderly company chairman and the strike leader. Neither will yield, even as the human cost mounts around them. The confrontation forces everyone to question what price they're willing to pay for their principles.
