Unsourced since 2007. A WP:BEFORE search discovered nothing substantial relating to this play in particular, which doesn't seem to even be the most notable play of the story. Moshe1022 (talk) 16:52, 3 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to The Prodigal Son#Theatre. This play doesn't seem to be notable, but there are other plays that would make a redirect useful. HappyWith (talk) 18:58, 3 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm supportive of a redirect option as well. Moshe1022 (talk) 21:25, 3 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Support redirect as well. Kazamzam (talk) 18:42, 4 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The play has never been produced. I don't think it's anything encyclopedic at all. It shouldn't even be listed in the Disambig page. If it should be redirected anywhere, it should be to the playwright Peter Wessel Zapffe's page -- Ssilvers (talk) 04:26, 5 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to The Prodigal Son#Theatre as a reasonable search term. Should not redirect to Zapffe because this is also the most logical name for the 1951 and 1735 plays which are at least as notable (likely more IMHO). Eluchil404 (talk) 05:28, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
