!Esperando La Carroza' (Waiting for the Hearse) by Uruguayan playwright Jacobo Langsner is a class system family satire that finds everything about the human condition laughable. A needy octogenarian with three adoring married sons becomes increasingly burdensome to her three daughters-in-law one poor, one middle-class, and one affluent. The fast-paced crackling comic dialogue traps all of its conniving characters in one form of personal scandal or other to expose their greed, hypocrisy, mendacity and mere sloth.
