Commedia Dell-Arte in the Servant of Two Masters

Past event
May 28, 2015

See the Leland and Gray Players in a madcap commedia dell’arte farce, The Servant of Two Masters, by Carlo Goldoni.

Betrothed couple Silvio and Clarice are devastated when a previous fiancé reappears, back-from-the-dead. People, places and things are not what they seem – disguises, traps and trickery produce a whirlwind of mass confusion. At the center of the farcical romp is Truffaldino, the scheming – and perpetually hungry – servant who lands on a crazy way to double his wages (and his meals) by serving two masters at once.

Performances Thursday, May 28 at 7; Friday, May 29 at 7:30 and Saturday, May 30 at 3 and 7:30 in the Dutton Gymnasium on the Leland and Gray campus, Rte. 30, Townshend. Adults, $6; students and seniors, $4: Group rates are available. For more information: verbatim@svcable.net.
