Synopsis
Truffaldino, a wily servant, has found a way to double his income – work two jobs for two masters at the same time. What could possibly go wrong? Hang on. His first master is actually a woman disguised as a man (who’s dead) come to find her lover (who killed her brother), but now finds herself accidentally betrothed to a girl (who’s engaged to someone else). His second master is a man (actually a man) who is in love with his first master (who’s really a woman whose brother he actually killed). Nah. What could go wrong?
Commedia dell’arte, done ‘Oz Style’.
