A good comedy will remind the audience of their own human foibles and allow them to learn from their past experiences.

Usually a character who deviates from reasonable values like sensibility, flexibility, moderation, tolerance and social intelligence
but in the end good sense wins the day.

This is a production photo from our production of Sylvia by A.R. Gurney.
In it the character of Greg falls in love with his dog, Sylvia, who is played by an actress.
By the end of the play, however, Greg returns to his wife.
