Doomed to repeat the traditional
life of an Italian harlequin, Truffaldino shirks his Commedia
Dell’arte upbringing and two-steps across the Atlantic to
find a strangely parallel world in the States. The cast of characters
may have evolved from old to new world sensibilities, but a host
of hilarious problems are one and the same. Truffaldino’s
search for himself turns into a poignant and ridiculous romp across
two continents. Genres collide when classic commedia and modern
sitcom share the stage in a new work by local star Ken Slattery.
