Disguising herself as her dead brother, Beatrice travels to Venice to find Florindo, the man responsible for his death. However her servant, Truffaldino, enters into the pay of Florindo and struggles to keep his two lives and masters apart.
Over two hundred and fifty years since it was written, this classic Italian comedy remains blisteringly hilarious and relevant. The plight of Truffaldino trying to keep two jobs afloat is still delighting audiences today in the hit adaptation One Man, Two Guvnors. Translated by Stephen Mulrine this is the original and a masterpiece of comic absurdity.
