Habeas Corpus
(Autor) Alan BennettThe antics at the Wicksteed home are a satirical merry-go-round. Family, friends and the sexual satisfaction of the "corpus" (body) are the ruling passions in this farcical comedy of ill-manners. Through a dance of mistaken identities and carnal encounters, one motto holds fast: "He whose lust lasts, lasts longest." "A parade of wit." - The New York Times "A marvelous freaky farce...rowdy and ribald." - NBC
