She Stoops To Conquer by Oliver Goldsmith
4.0
She Stoops to Conquer is a really funny drama and I truly love it so. The points that really hold me to it are as follows:
1. It is a really short play and thus is perfect for a single-seating read, and readathons.
2. It marked a change in the dramas of that time because sentimental comedies had been preferred back in the day. However, it was Oliver Goldsmith who came up with this laughing comedy and revived the audience.
3. The play also follows the three classical Unities perfectly.
4. The cast is a full-on funny and humourous collection of various people who represent the follies of the age. As such, She Stoops to Conquer is also a comedy of manners.
5. The plot is well created and spans only the duration of a single night, wherein the events take place.
6. The subplot is also a romantic and funny one and is bound to incite laughter in the audience.
I rate She Stoops to Conquer a solid 4/5 stars. I also definitely recommend everyone to read this drama as it’s a funny and short read, and moreover, marked a considerable revolution in the field of play at the time it first came out.
