Over two hundred and fifty years after it was written, this classic Italian comedy remains blisteringly hilarious and relevant. The plight of Truffaldino, desperately trying to keep two jobs afloat, has most recently delighted audiences in the smash-hit adaptation One Man, Two Guvnors. This is the original, a masterpiece of comic absurdity.
