    SAINETE A sainete is a humorous short, generally one-act, verse play sometimes performed as an interlude between the acts of a major play. Sainetes were developed in the 18th century by playwrights such as Ramón de la Cruz, and were largely based on satirical observations of ordinary people's lives and reflected this in the language they were written in. They were still being written by authors such as Carlos Arniches well into the 20th century.
