The Black Comedy (play)

*The Black Comedy* is a humorous play that uses clever staging to explore themes of perception, reality, and misunderstanding. It involves a comedy of errors where characters' appearances and situations are exaggerated or mistaken, often using a minimalist set that transforms through lighting to reveal different scenes. The play's humor arises from the contrast between the dark, serious themes and the lively, often chaotic interactions of the characters. Its innovative use of lighting and timing creates a playful atmosphere, making it an engaging satire on human folly and the absurdity of social pretensions.
