Summary:
The Servant of Two Masters features a double pair of star-crossed lovers, an wily con-artist servant, a woman masquerading as her dead brother, hilariously out-of-touch old men, and flying rubber chickens. Performed in commedia dell'arte tradition with colorful period costumes, all the slapstick you'd care to shake a shtick at.
