"The Belle's Stratagem" by Hannah Cowley, written in 1780, is a delightful play that serves as a response to George Farquhar's "The Beaux Stratagem." While "The Beaux Stratagem" focuses on male characters, Cowley's play takes center stage with strong female characters. This witty and engaging piece showcases the ingenuity and charm of the female protagonists as they navigate love, society, and their own desires. With its clever plot twists and lively dialogue, "The Belle's Stratagem" offers a refreshing and empowering perspective on the 18th-century theatrical landscape.
