{{Use dmy dates|date=December 2013}}George Frederick Price Darrell (1851–1921) was an Australian playwright best known for The Sunny South (1883).[1]

Darrell began his professional career with Simonson's Opera Company in New Zealand; but, on migrating to Melbourne, took to the regular dramatic profession, earning some distinction as a juvenile supporter of the once idolised Walter Montgomery.[2] He married Mrs. Robert Hair (née Fanny Cathcart), the admirable tragédienne, and subsequently visited professionally America and England, where, at the Grand Theatre, Islington, he produced his play The Sunny South.[2]
