A Servant of Two Masters
This play by Carlo Goldoni, in a modern adaptation by Dorothy Louise, is a funny and wild romp of a comedy. Based on the improvisational theatre of the Italian Renaissance, called Commedia Dell Arte’, the show is full of physical comedy, mistaken identities, and slapstick.
The story centers on a servant, Truffaldino, played by Roger Harris of Pratt, who tries to serve two different noblemen at once. These two are played by Andrew Taylor of Pratt and Emily Ernstmann of Andale. Emily’s character is actually a noblewoman, Beatrice, who is in disguise as her brother, Federigo. Obviously, this whole situation leaves the play open for lots of comedic complications.
Andrew’s character, Florindo, is in love with Beatrice and wants to marry her, while another set of lovers is trying to marry: Paul Markey of Olathe and Ashley Ciesielski of Cheney. The parents in all of this mix-up are Joe Schmisseur of Pratt, PCC vocal music director JJ Rupe, and Amanda Cash of Pratt.
Additional characters include the servant Smeraldina, played by Brandy Alexander of Pratt; Brighella the innkeeper, played by Jamie Durler of Pratt; and a host of servants, played to great comedic effect by Jessica Harris, Brittany Jean, Audrey Kisner, and Sam Morrison – all of Pratt – as well as Michelle Leddy of Conway Springs and Aaron Wendland of St. John.
Technical director is Charles Collins with costumes by Misty Beck. The director is Rose Beilman.
