Un pis al ensanche : Comedia en un acte y en prosa by José Feliú y Codina

Un pis al ensanche by José Feliú y Codina is a one-act stage comedy written in the late 19th century. Set in contemporary Barcelona, it centers on a bachelor’s Eixample apartment and the romantic mix-ups that swirl around it. The play playfully explores courtship, jealousy, and gossip as a wedding plan collides with old flames and new tenants. The action follows Feliu, a middle-aged bachelor preparing to marry Eulalia and vacate his beloved flat. While a meticulous notary keeps asking if he is truly decided, two prospective tenants arrive: Carreras, a hot-blooded gentleman, and Guadalupe, his former fiancée, whose engagement to him collapsed amid rumors about a notorious “invited guest.” Recognizing each other in Feliu’s living room, they relive their quarrel and trade accusations, with Feliu awkwardly mediating. The argument uncovers that the scandalous guest was Eulalia herself, prompting Feliu to break off his wedding and cling to his bachelor’s life. The notary reappears as Feliu nudges Carreras and Guadalupe toward reconciliation, and a final message announces that the scheming Miralles has married Eulalia—leaving Feliu happily in his old apartment and the estranged pair newly open to making peace.
