 The play originally appeared anonymously, under the name “A Patriot”, when it  was first performed at Wyndham’s Theatre, London, on 27 January 1909, produced by Gerald du Maurier. The work caused a sensation with its theme of an invasion by an anonymous country and England's unpreparedness for such an event. The piece became a long-running success, though it caused an outrage in Germany since the German press saw it as a critique of their homeland.
