Over Night is a farce in three acts by Philip Bartholomae. The play takes place aboard the S.S. Hendrik Hudson, a steamboat on the Hudson River Day Line, and follows two sets of couples, the "Darlings" and the "Kettles".[1] The work premiered on Broadway in 1911, and it was the first significant success for Bartholomae as a playwright.[2] Bartholomae later adapted his play into a screenplay for the 1915 film of the same name which was directed by James Young and starred Vivian Martin and Sam Hardy. He later adapted this play in collaboration with Guy Bolton into the hit Broadway musical Very Good Eddie (1915) which featured music by Jerome Kern.[3]
