$14.98

Set somewhere in outport Newfoundland in the 1890’s, written and first performed in the mid 1980’s by Frank Holden, Judge Prowse Presiding brings a vital character and a near-forgotten frontier world back to life. 

Daniel Woodley Prowse (1834-1914), police magistrate, journalist, sportsman, historian and champion of the common man, was a “cross between Dr Samuel Johnson and Falstaff.” As he rails at both plaintiffs and felons in his jokes and yarns he revives the excitement and the agonies of his time.
