In Chapter 3 of A Communication to My Friends (1933), George Moore credited Lange, whom he met in the early 1880s, for the choice of Hanley as a principal location in A Mummer’s Wife (1885); Lange was later the model for opera manager Hermann Goetze in George’s Evelyn Innes (1901). The Wild Duck would be produced by the Independent Theatre Society at the Royalty Theatre (4-5 May 1894). The Power of Darkness was not produced in England until 1904.
