He was whistled at after the performance
of "A Stormy Night". His reviewers asked that the author of such a "dirty stupidity" be punished by the state officials.
In response, Titu Maiorescu, the leader of
the cultural society Junimea, writes the article "Mister Caragiale´s Comedies" ("Comediile d-lui Caragiale").
