The story revolves around social themes and moral dilemmas, examining human nature and the concept of duty towards others, particularly in the context of class and altruism. Through a comedic lens, Galsworthy addresses profound moral questions and critiques societal behaviors. The play takes place in three scenes, primarily involving a diverse group of characters at an Austrian railway station. At the center of the story is the titular Little Man, who finds himself in a rather absurd situation after accidentally taking a baby from its mother. Throughout the interactions with the other travelers—an American, an English couple, a German, and a Dutch boy—the Little Man grapples with themes of responsibility, selflessness, and the social implications of class distinctions. The characters engage in humorous yet thought-provoking discussions that highlight their attitudes towards duty and brotherhood, culminating in a moment of crisis when the Little Man must defend his actions to an official and a policeman. Ultimately, the play wraps up with a comedic yet uplifting resolution that emphasizes kindness and the intrinsic value of humanity.
