underplot การใช้

• The piece is based on Mrs Aphra Behn's " The History of the Nun ", with the addition of a comic underplot.
• The comic underplot, in which Costard and others attempt to stage a play ( rather like that of the rude mechanicals in " A Midsummer Night's Dream ", though with more pretensions to learning ) is severely curtailed, as is the boasting of the Spaniard, Don Armado.
