Her First Affaire

Her First Affaire is a play in three acts. Existing in two different versions, the original play was authored by Merrill Rogers and premiered on Broadway in 1927. The play was reworked for its United Kingdom staging in 1930 by playwright Frederick Jackson, and both Jackson and Rogers were credited as authors for this second version of the play which premiered at the Lewisham Hippodrome in 1930. This second version was the basis for the 1932 film Her First Affaire.
