In honor of the king's birthday, Clark is charged with staging a production of the George Farquhar comedy <i>The Recruiting Officer</i>. What's more, as Clark supervises the penal colony of Sydney Cove, Australia at the very end of the late-nineteenth-century British Empire's rule, he must use his prisoners as the cast and production crew. Based on the lieutenant's real diaries, <i>The Playmaker</i> is a work of true genius by one of the most notable names in historical fiction.
