Intro to Theatre Arts
The way of the world refers to the intricate social dynamics, behaviors, and moral attitudes that govern human interactions and relationships, particularly in the context of society's values and expectations. This concept is central to Restoration comedy and drama, where characters often navigate complex social situations, revealing hypocrisy, ambition, and desire for wealth or status.
