The Servant of Two Masters

January 2011

 



servant_preshow   Beatrice is searching for Florindo, and for a dowry meant for her recently-deceased brother. Florindo is searching for Beatrice and a means to marry her. Clarice is looking to marry Silvio, and for a way to break her engagement to Beatrice's brother, whose death she knows nothing about. And Clarice's father Pantalone is desperate to hold onto his money!

 

Tying these commedia dell'arte characters together is Truffaldino, Beatrice's servant. Always hungry, he unwittingly accepts a second position of servitude to supplement his income from Beatrice. Unfortunately, his new master is Florindo! Truffaldino must be quick on his feet if he wants to avoid discovery of his deception, and to keep his belly full!
