- Sheppey_(play) abstract "Sheppey (1933) was William Somerset Maugham's last play, written at the age of 59 and after he had reached distinction as a novelist and playwright. Maugham dedicated the book to Sir John Gielgud.It is the story about the change of fortune of hairdresser Joseph Miller who was born on the Isle of Sheppey, Kent and nicknamed Sheppey. The play is set in the 1930s. Sheppey, a hard worker at the same establishment for 15 years, wins a subsidiary prize in the Irish Lottery of £8,500 but does not take to his win with the same style that most others would – and to which most, including his boss, his wife or his daughter and her fiancé (a teacher given to believing that he is more educated than most) — expect him to.The play was written in 1932 and first produced at the Wyndham's Theatre London on 14 September 1933 including a cast that included Ralph Richardson, then aged 31, and Laura Cowie who had been a star of the silent movies.After the production of Sheppey, Maugham announced publicly that he would write no more plays and kept to his word until his death in 1965. He did however write numerous other short stories, novels, articles and other items.".
