Description
Plays - "Adaptations from Foreign Authors"
The following works seem to have been actually written by Peach himself and passed off as the work of others, in order that he might not appear too prolific!

Where Witches Do Inhabit (Ahol boszorkányok laknak), by Vladimir Czuczor, 1969 (2 copies, from Hungarian)
Purely Promiscuous, adapted from the French Comedy "Symphonie A Deux Lits"
