About This Book

Un sainet en un acte situa l'acció al menjador d'una vila catalana i segueix una colla d'aficionats teatrals que es preparen per a una funció d'ambient polèmic. Interpassen converses sobre vestuari, gelosia, l'arribada de joves actrius i la reacció conservadora del poble; s'hi mostren tensions entre veterans i nous, la comèdia i la grandiloqüència dramàtica, i el ridícul de la vanitat municipal. L'obra combina humor popular amb crítica social sobre les convencions, la hipocresia i la relació entre vida quotidiana i representació escènica.
