The Servant of Two Masters
by Carlo Goldoni

Tuesday–Saturday, April 24–28 @ 8 p.m., April 29 @ 2 p.m.
Mainstage Theatre

Chaos reigns as the wily (and always hungry!) servant Truffaldino tries to keep two masters happy while keeping them blissfully unaware of each other. Written in the style of commedia dell’arte, Carlo Goldoni’s classic — with its plot twists, mistaken identities, unrequited love and wildly irreverent comedy — has been making audiences laugh for more than 250 years. Jean Pétrement, the artistic director of the acclaimed French theatre company Theatre Bacchus, returns to JMU as the special guest director for this production. Caution: Sides may split from laughter.
