a short one-act comic play by Lady Gregory, which she wrote for the opening night of the Abbey Theatre in Dublin, 27 Dec. 1904. It was performed as part of a triple bill alongside William Butler Yeats’s „On Baile’s Strand” and a revival of the Yeats and Gregory collaborative one-act „Cathleen Ni Houlihan” (1902). Audiences may have dozed through Yeats’s play, but Spreading the News was very successful and it is still acted at the Abbey Theatre as late as 1961. Lady Gregory remarked after seeing an early performance of the play that „the audience would laugh so much at ‚Spreading the News’ that they lost about half the dialogue. I mustn’t be so amusing again!”
