Messrs. Glembay: A Drama in Three Acts From the Life of One Agramer Patrician Family (Croatian: Gospoda Glembajevi. Drama u tri čina iz života jedne agramerske patricijske obitelji)[a] is a play by the Croatian author Miroslav Krleža.
The play is divided into three acts, dealing with the events and the rift within the Glembay family. Messrs. Glembay is the first of three plays in the Glembay cycle which includes the dramas In Agony and Leda. The drama is commonly performed in the standard repertoire of major theaters across Croatia, and it is considered a classic of Croatian literature.[1]
The play was adapted into a 1988 feature film The Glembays, directed by Antun Vrdoljak, and starring Mustafa Nadarević as Leone Glembay and Ena Begović as Baroness Castelli-Glembay.[2]
An English translation of Gospoda Glembajevi (The Glembays) is available in Harbors Rich in Ships: Selected Revolutionary Writings by Željko Cipriš.[3]
Setting
The play is set in Zagreb, then a part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, in the summer of 1913. The events of the play unfold in Ignjat Glembay's home on the night of a feast celebrating the anniversary of the Glembay Ltd., between the hours of one and five in the morning.
