Plautus' Plays

The play "Casina" is the one I greatly prefer. I could follow the characters and idea of the play easily, which made it more enjoyable. It was an odd plot, but added to the comedy it was trying to portray. The constant scheming was funny, leading to the ending which was the most entertaining part of the play. After reading it I could remember what it was about and didn't find myself straying while reading. While reading "The Braggart Soldier" I could not follow it and found my attention not on the play. There was scheming but I did not find it humerus like in "Casina." The storyline of the characters was confusing to me, making the overall plot of the play confusing. It didn't seem like a comedy.
