When two misers return from abroad, their sons find their romances with two mysterious women in peril. They enlist the services of a wily servant to swindle, hoodwink, and bamboozle their way to a happy ending. Moli re's most famous farce marries his signature wit and verve with the traditions of commedia dell'arte.

"Moli re's genius for rhythm, laughs, and fast action are the stuff of pure theatre."

Georges Mongr dien
