At The Sign of The Greedy Pig

Charles S. Brooks

At The Sign of The Greedy Pig is a comedic play by Charles S. Brooks, published alongside 'Wappin' Wharf: A Frightful Comedy of Pirates'. Set in an ancient city, the story unfolds in a tavern where beggars face the threat of being hanged as vagrants. The play explores themes of love and survival amidst the backdrop of a whimsical, flat world filled with comets and witches. Its unique blend of humor and social commentary makes it a notable work in early American theater.
