Adaptation
Main article: Women Who Play

In 1932 the play was adapted into a British film Women Who Play directed by Arthur Rosson and starring Mary Newcomb, Benita Hume and George Barraud. The film generally followed the play with certain changes, largely due to censorship issues such as the prostitute being replaced by an actress.
