German Man kann nie wissen: Komödie in vier Akten Wikipedia page about this book: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/You_Never_Can_Tell_(play) https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Man_kann_nie_wissen Produced by Michalina Makowska "Man kann nie wissen: Komödie in vier Akten" by George Bernard Shaw is a comedic play written during the late 19th century. The narrative centers around Frau Clandon and her three children, Philip, Gloria, and Dolly, as they navigate the complexities of their familial relationships and societal expectations in an English seaside town. The play delves into themes of identity, parental influence, and the pursuit of truth. The opening of the play introduces us to Dr. Valentine, a young and somewhat inept dentist, as he interacts with Dolly, who has just had a tooth extracted. Their banter is lively and sets a humorous tone for the story. Shortly after, Philip, her twin brother, joins them, and they engage in playful conversation about their unfamiliarity with English societal norms, particularly the significance of having a father. Dollys' charm contrasts with Philip's more serious demeanor, as they both reveal their curiosity about their father, a figure shrouded in mystery. This initial act establishes the comedic backdrop while hinting at deeper familial questions that will unfold throughout the play. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
