Dec 11-14: The Servant of Two Masters is a fast-paced romantic comedy set in 1700s Venice, inspired by the colorful world of Commedia dell’Arte. Chaos erupts when Beatrice, disguised as her brother, and her beloved Florindo unknowingly hire the same sly servant—Truffaldino. Add in a pair of young lovers navigating overbearing parents, a bold maid with eyes for Truffaldino, and a few sneaky side characters, and you’ve got a whirlwind of mistaken identities, slapstick, and surprises. This lively production promises laughs, love, and classic Italian flair!
