The Bengal Tiger is a farce in one act by Charles Dance (1794-1863)[1].
According to Bernt Lindfors (2011: pp. 311-312), this play should not be confused with Un Tigre du Bengale by Édouard Brisebarre (1815-1871)[2] and Marc-Michel (1812-1868)[3].
Telling of a visit by a rich but stingy uncle from India, it was first performed on 16 December, 1837 and published in London by J. Dicks as Issue 366 of Dicks' standard plays; Volume 15 of Modern English Comic Theatre, 1838.
