1 answer

One-act play would be a better fit for the playwright who wants to make the audience laugh without spending too much time building up to the action. One-act plays are typically shorter and have a more concise structure, allowing for a faster-paced narrative and immediate engagement with comedic elements. On the other hand, three-act plays often involve more complex character development and plot progression, which may not align with the playwright's intention of delivering quick and immediate humor.
