Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - La tontine is a lively one act comic play that explores deception, greed, and the absurd lengths people will go to secure financial advantage. Centered around the humorous complications of a tontine scheme, where the last surviving participant receives the full reward, the story exposes the ridiculousness of human obsession with profit and survival. The play also satirizes the relationships between doctors and patients, highlighting how trust can be manipulated and how authority figures may become entangled in schemes of self interest. Through witty dialogue and exaggerated situations, the work presents a sharp commentary on social pretenses, moral weakness, and the comic consequences of dishonesty. Themes of ambition, manipulation, and the unpredictability of fortune run throughout, giving the play both entertainment and social critique. With its fast pace and clever humor, the piece reflects the theatrical tradition of exposing everyday follies through laughter. La tontine remains engaging for its playful examination of financial absurdity, human vanity, and the way comedy can reveal deeper truths about society. …
