This is wordplay.

Word play or wordplay1 (also: play-on-words) is a literary technique
and a form of wit in which words used become the main subject of the
work, primarily for the purpose of intended effect or amusement.

The Wiki Page this is lifted from gives some examples of plays and books you could read to help you in your quest.

There are also dozens of books on the subject, like Wisdom & Wordplay by Robert Eddison. But if you search on Amazon, you'll find a lot more.

Good luck!
