Produktbeschreibung
Jardiel Poncela, a symbol in the theater of humor in our country, is known, since his works continue to be performed continuously. In this edition, two very representative texts of his humor come together. A white-collar thief is about to hit a mansion, but decides to suspend it when he falls in love with the daughter of the family, with the consequent conflict between his accomplices and henchmen. Such is the plot of Thieves Are Honest People, a comedy in a prologue and two acts that may not be one of Jardiel Poncela's most original works, but it is one of the best constructed, one of the most popular and also one of those that produced the most economic benefits. Margarita, Armando and His Father, much less well known and published, is a work with a sympathetic and sentimental theme, based on Dumas's The Lady of the Camellias.
Autorenporträt
Enrique Jardiel Poncela dedicated his life completely to the theater. Usually related to the theater of the absurd, his work, novel for its time, was widely criticized, and had several mishaps with Franco's censorship. However, to this day his enormous value as a writer and playwright has been recognized. He has a multitude of works to his credit, among them some well-known ones, such as Love is Written Without an Ax, Wait For Me in Siberia, My Life, You Have the Eyes of a Fatal Woman, Eloísa is Under an Almond Tree, or Thieves Are Honest People.
