The Girl With the Green Eyes is a play written by Clyde Fitch that is divided into four acts. The story revolves around a young woman named Rosalie Vanderpoel, who has striking green eyes and is the heiress to a large fortune. Rosalie is engaged to a wealthy man named Arthur, but she is secretly in love with a struggling artist named Paul. When Paul is hired to paint Rosalie's portrait, they begin a passionate affair that threatens to destroy her engagement and reputation. As the story unfolds, we see the characters navigate their desires, ambitions, and societal expectations in a world where love and money often collide. The play explores themes of class, love, and morality, and is a classic example of American melodrama from the turn of the 20th century.1909. William Clyde Fitch was, in his brief, twenty year career, the most popular playwright of his era.
