The Shakespeare Theatre Company will present its first Carlo Goldoni classic: The Servant of Two Masters, adapted by Constance Congdon, and directed by Christopher Bayes. This magical, highly physical, commedia dell’arte production will run at the Lansburgh Theatre, May 15-June 24, 2012.

The Servant of Two Masters centers on the wily servant Truffaldino, played by Steven Epp, who devises a zany scheme to double his wages by serving two masters at once. Mayhem erupts when identities are mistaken, engagements are broken and lovers are reunited in this commedia dell’arte masterpiece.

The sound designers are Nathan A. Roberts and Charles Coes and the composers and musicians are Aaron Halva and Chris Curtis.

In addition to the Washington, D.C. run, STC’s production of The Servant of Two Masters will tour to the Guthrie Theater in Minneapolis and ArtsEmerson in Boston as part of their 2012-2013 Seasons.
