In Make Believe, by A.A. Milne, the nine Hubbard children, added by their friend, Rosemary (Beatrice Wheeler), and the Butler, James (Art Winder), think up a play involving pirates, cannibals and a cassowary bird. It was a rousing success and director Sandall remarked, "This is the best one we have ever done."
Although officially titled Make-Believe: A Children's Play In a Prologue and Three Acts, as with J.M. Barrie's Peter Pan, it was designed for adults as well as children. It includes a stereotypical English butler who could be the prototype for P.G. Wodehouse's Jeeves.
As with the previous The Little Clay Cart, very little is know about this play, other than two pictures, one of which is of an empty stage.
