A precursor to what has become known as situational comedy, The Servant of Two Masters is a classic Italian commedia dell’Arte show. It follows the story of Truffaldino who takes an opportunity to become servant to two different people. Little does he know that they are not only residing in the same inn, but their lives are interwoven in ways that the masters are not aware of. In true slapstick comedy fashion, assumptions are made, misunderstandings occur and everyone comes together at the end to live happily ever after.
