The Two Look-Alikes
The Two Look-Alikes
Li Due Simili from Plauto
A classic Commedia dell'Arte performance, showing the improvisational techniques and grotesque style of this theatrical form and developed an improvisation based on a late 1500s scenario from the Corsiniana collection in Rome.
The plot draws inspiration from Plautus’ Latin comedy The Menaechmi, later adapted by both William Shakespeare and Carlo Goldoni. It is one of the most enduring comic structures: the tale of two long‑lost brothers who, at last, find each other again.
In English with some Italian - Ten performers with intermezzi sung by Carmen Marsico - Directed by Chiara Durazzini
