Castleton University Theater Arts Presents: the Liar

Past event
Nov 8, 7 PM to Nov 11, 2017

Come enjoy our talented students in one of the Western world's greatest comedies.

Dorante is a charming young man newly arrived in the capital, and he has a single flaw: He cannot tell the truth. In quick succession, he meets Cliton, a manservant who cannot tell a lie, and falls in love with Clarice, a charming young woman whom he mistakes for her friend Lucrece. What our hero does not know is that Clarice is secretly engaged to his best friend, Alcippe. Nor is he aware that his father is trying to get him married to Clarice, who he thinks is Lucrece, who actually is in love with him.

A sparkling urban romance as fresh as the day Pierre Corneille wrote it, brilliantly adapted for today by David Ives.
$10 general admission
