Book Overview

The Model House: A Comedy In Five Acts is a play written by an anonymous author in 1868. The play is set in a model house, which is a house designed to showcase the latest in modern living. The story revolves around the interactions of the various characters who visit the house, including the builder, the architect, the owner, and several potential buyers. As the play progresses, the characters become embroiled in a series of comedic misunderstandings and mishaps, including mistaken identities, romantic entanglements, and financial troubles. The play satirizes the obsession with modernity and progress that was prevalent in Victorian society, as well as the social conventions and expectations of the time.The Model House is a witty and entertaining play that offers a glimpse into the social and cultural norms of Victorian England. It is a humorous commentary on the changing values and attitudes of the era, and a reminder that even in the midst of progress, human foibles and follies remain constant.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
