The Last of the De Mullins is a play written by St. John Hankin in 1909. The play is set in England and revolves around the De Mullins family, who are struggling to maintain their aristocratic status in a changing society. The play follows the family's attempts to marry off their daughter, Cynthia, to a wealthy suitor in order to save their estate from financial ruin. However, the family's plans are complicated by the arrival of a young man named Ronald, who is the son of a wealthy businessman and is not interested in marrying Cynthia. The play explores themes of class, tradition, and the struggle to adapt to a changing world. It is known for its witty dialogue and satirical commentary on the British upper class.
