The Game of Love and Chance
5 Male, 2 Female
Marivaux trans Stephen Wadsworth Price: $8.95
Silvia, well born and high spirited, is concerned about an arranged marriage so she spends the day of her finace’s first visit disguised as her maid Lisette while Lisette she pretends to be Silvia
The intended husband, Dorante, takes the same precaution, arriving in the guise of his servant. And his servant, who duly comes dressed as Dorante, is the irrepressible and outrageous Harlequin, which means pandemonium ensues
The “servants"are drawn to each other but must overcome the pride and prejudice of their social class while Lisette and Harlequin savor a delicious taste of freedom and respectability. All are deeply perplexed as Marivaux uncompromisingly turns the screw
Silvia’s father and brother, who know all but say nothing, preside over the sentimental education of these comedic desperadoes
