Full of raucous energy typical of Commedia dell’arte, this colorful play involves a plot by the roguish clown Scaramouch to have Bacchus, the Greek god himself, star in his latest theatrical piece. Meanwhile, Silenus schemes to interfere with Scaramouch and the would-be lovers, Ione and Sarmion. Performed outdoors resembling Commedia’s 17th century origins.
Written by John Davidson in Commedia dell’arte Style
