Henry Arthur Jones (1851-1929) a successful English playwright and commentator on "all forms of dramatic art," offers "essays in burlesque, serious drama, comedy and tragedy," laments the lack of venues for one-act plays, and sets forth three one-acts of his own. Oscar Wilde quipped that "There are three rules for writing plays. The first rule is not to write like Henry Arthur Jones; the second and third rules are the same."
