De Witt's Ethiopian and Comic Drama is a book that was originally published in 1880 by Clinton T. De Witt. The book is a collection of plays that are designed to be performed on stage, with a focus on the genre of Ethiopian and comic drama. The plays are intended to be humorous and entertaining, and they feature a range of characters and situations that are typical of the genre.The book is divided into several sections, each of which contains a number of different plays. The first section includes plays that are designed to be performed by a single actor, while the second section features plays that require multiple actors. The third section includes plays that are designed to be performed by female actors, while the fourth section features plays that are intended for male actors.The plays themselves are written in a style that is typical of the time period in which they were written. They feature a lot of dialect and slang, and they often rely on physical comedy and slapstick humor to get their laughs. Some of the plays are more serious in tone, but most of them are designed to be light and entertaining.Overall, De Witt's Ethiopian and Comic Drama is a fascinating glimpse into the world of 19th-century theater. It provides a valuable insight into the types of plays that were popular at the time, and it is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of theater or comedy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
