There are different genres in a theatre play. These are the comedy, farce, satirical, tragedy and historical genres. As the name implies, a comedy is a kind of play that is humorous. In a comedy, witty remarks, eccentric and unusual characters and weird happenings are essential. The director gets to decide the targeted age group which it will focus on.
