Answer Details

Yoruba drama is grouped into types based on its tone and purpose. A play that has no serious central theme but is instead filled with light complaints, exaggeration, and laughter is a comic play, known as eré aláwàdà. Its purpose is to entertain the audience through humour rather than to teach a lesson or narrate a serious event.

This matches the description in the question exactly, which is why the comic play (eré aláwàdà) is the correct answer.

A tragic play (eré ìbànújẹ́) is built around sorrow and serious conflict, the opposite of what the question describes, while an educational play and a historical play are organised around instruction or past events rather than humour. Matching a drama type to the mood described, here laughter and lack of serious plot, is the reliable way to answer this kind of classification question.
