Lady Windermeres Fan by Oscar Wilde as a well-made playThe tradition of the well-made play emerged towards the end of the 19th century. It was also called a well-made piece, which means “Drama of the Second Empire”. It is mainly based on the work of Eugène Scribe, Dumas, Émile Augier and Victorien Sardou. The tradition reached its peak with the works of Sardou in which the construction techniques invented by Scribe were fully used. Construction and staging are fully exploited rather than characterization and ideas. In the plot construction of a well-made play, one action results in artificial complications that are easily resolved by ingenious solutions. This is the scene whose living room or living room has double doors at the side entrances. It begins with exposition setting the scene detailing where the characters are in the scene. The problem of the play is revealed in the heart of the play, where there may be a sudden change. Ultimately, the play ends happily and pleasantly.1 As a well-known type of play, it was predominant in French and later European theater. The London stage was in many ways like an extension of the Parisian theater and thrived on plays of this type making imitations, adaptations and translations of French drama.2 Moreover, well-made drama was replaced in the plays romantic ones such as that of Shelley. Cenci and Manfred by Byron. Furthermore, it succeeded the extravagant farces, crude melodramas, and spectacle plays that constituted the public entertainment of the people in the mid-19th century. It was better than the romantic play and other types of well-organized and compact situational games.
