ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

The Visit (play)

"The Visit" is a play, which means it is a story that is acted out on a stage in front of an audience.

The story is about a woman named Claire who comes back to her hometown after many years. She is very rich and offers to give her old town a lot of money. But there is a catch - she wants someone to kill a man who did her wrong a long time ago.

The people in the town are very tempted by the money, but they also know it is wrong to kill someone. They have to decide whether to take the money or stick to their morals.

Throughout the play, we see the different characters struggling with this difficult decision. There are also some fun and silly moments, like a man who likes to wear women's clothes and a dance number.

At the end of the play, we find out what decision the characters make and what happens to the town as a result. It is a very emotional and thought-provoking play that raises important questions about morals, money, and justice.
