1.5 stars. A totally forgettable play that is not comic, insightful, or witty. The plot seems like a pale imitation of [b:Mostellaria or the Haunted House|780346|Mostellaria or the Haunted House|Plautus|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1348224135s/780346.jpg|766372], which isn't that great, either. The translator in his introduction tried mightily to curb expectations by claiming the humor is “mild” and shows “restraint.” These are all merely euphemisms for “isn’t very good.”
