The Little Foxes by Lillian Hellman
dark
tense
slow-paced
- Loveable characters? No
2.0
This didn't age well, as it takes place in 1900. And since the plot could easily be minorly changed to be less racist, it just wasn't a great setting.
A family has a chance to make a new profitable business investment, but they are short 80k. The sister's husband refuses to put up the amount.
And the whole play is them arguing, bartering, and cheating each other over the share of the new venture.
The black characters are minor and the n slur is used several times in chit chat.
And the plot is just meh. There's potential in the ending, but it's a shame it is most interesting in act three and then it ends.
