StoneCrabs and New End Theatre present

The Servant Of Two Masters

14 December 2004 to 1 January 2005

By Carlo Goldoni
Adapted and directed by Franko Figueiredo
Set and costume design by Lu Firth

With Tereza Araujo, Lisa Benson, Andrea Cullum, Catherine Eccles, Jillian George–Lewis, Simon Lawrence, Stuart Major, Marcio Mello, William Tombs.

The Brazilian company StoneCrabs descend upon the New End Theatre with this riotously funny adaptation of Carlo Goldoni's energetic and exhilarating 18th century commedia dell’arte comedy.

Underpaid and overstretched, Arlechinno, a cunning servant gets a lucky break when he finds himself engaged in the service of two masters at the same time – double the pay, double the food!

Things begin to get complicated however, when both employers decide to lodge at the same inn. This, combined with thwarted marriage arrangements, love affairs and mistaken identities, serves to create hilarious confusion from which it seems impossible for even the wily Arlechinno to escape!

Allow this colourful international company to transport you from the cold winter into this heartwarming and uplifting alternative to, and roots of, traditional pantomime.
Suitable for 8 year olds and upwards.
