Elizabeth Inchbald’s 1788 farce is a brilliant riff on the art of deception and of revenge against the patriarchy.

The Doctor - a quack - practices amateur medical techniques on his servant and keeps his beautiful young ward (as well as her maid) under lock and key, intending to force her into marriage. A wealthy (and enamored) young stranger offers an escape route, and when his attendant arrives at the house disguised as an expert in mesmerism, the scene is set for the Doctor to get his comeuppance and the women to achieve their desires.

The Duchess of Navarre decides it's time that the family take a trip to the seaside; everyone else is doing it, why shouldn't they? Unfortunately, the tides take a turn for the worst, and they have to battle not only sunburns, sand, and squid, but also...each other.

About our Commedia program:

This original commedia-style play brings larger-than-life characters, physical comedy, music, and theatrical mischief inspired by the classic Italian tradition. After opening at NEYT, the fast-paced half-hour show will tour local schools this fall.
