Summary "Quince minutos en globo" by Joaquín Barberá is a comic, lyrical, and danceable play written in the late 19th century. This theatrical work unfolds in a single act, combining prose and verse to tell a light-hearted story centered around the themes of love, marriage, and misunderstandings amidst comedic scenarios. The play likely showcases the social dynamics of its time through exaggerated character interactions and humorous situations typical of the period. The storyline revolves around the character Carlota, who is pressured into an arranged marriage with Rufino, despite her affection for another man, Andrés. The plot begins with preparations for a celebration that includes invited guests, humorous exchanges between characters, and comedic conflicts as Carlota rebels against her mother’s wishes. Meanwhile, a troupe of entertainers introduces additional chaos and amusement with unexpected performances. The climax builds towards a whimsical moment involving a hot air balloon, which ultimately serves as a catalyst for Carlota and Andrés' escapades, leading to confusion and a blend of romantic and comedic outcomes. The play encapsulates a playful exploration of youthful love and societal expectations. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
