Résumé : "The Silver Box" by John Galsworthy is a thought-provoking social drama that explores themes of justice, class, and morality in early 20th-century England. Set in the bustling city of London, the play follows the story of a working-class family, the Jordans, who become embroiled in a scandalous legal case when their son, John, is accused of theft. At the heart of the play is the titular silver box, a symbol of the vast economic disparities and social inequalities that divide the characters along class lines. As the case unfolds, the play exposes the hypocrisy and corruption of the legal system, revealing how wealth and privilege can influence the course of justice.
