Description
A hilarious and enduring comedy from 18th-century Italy, now available in English. Beatrice disguises herself as her dead brother to find Florindo, the man responsible for his death. However, things become complicated when Truffaldino, her loyal servant, enters into the service of Florindo's rival master. As Truffaldino struggles to keep up with his two masters and their conflicting demands, chaos ensues. Translated by Stephen Mulrine and published in the Nick Hern Books Drama Classics series, this English version of Carlo Goldoni's play brings the witty dialogue and physical comedy of Italian commedia dell'arte to a new audience. With its enduring themes of deception, loyalty, and mistaken identity, The Servant of Two Masters remains a side-splittingly funny and engaging read. In 122 pages of paperback, this edition offers a compact and affordable introduction to one of Italy's most beloved comedies.
