Christa Winsloe
Christa Winsloe (1888-1944) was a 20th-century German-Hungarian novelist, playwright and sculptor, best known for her play Gestern und heute (literally Yesterday and Today) - known under several titles.
The original title was rejected as too insipid, so the play was renamed Ritter Nérestan (literally: "Knight Nérestan") when it appeared in 1930 in Leipzig. When it was brought to Berlin, it was renamed again to Krankheit der Liebe (lit. "Sickness of Love").
In 1932, her play was performed as "Children in Uniform" (English adaptation by Barbara Burnham) at the Duchess Theatre in London, England with Cathleen Nesbitt and Jessica Tandy in the cast.
