"The Visit" is a play written by Swiss playwright Friedrich Dürrenmatt. It tells the story of Claire Zachanassian, a wealthy woman who returns to her impoverished hometown after many years. She offers the townspeople a large sum of money in exchange for the death of her former lover, Alfred Ill, who wronged her in the past.
As the plot unfolds, the moral dilemmas faced by the townspeople become evident. They struggle with their conscience and the temptation of wealth, leading to a dramatic exploration of justice, revenge, and the corrupting influence of money. The play raises questions about ethics and human nature.
