Description
Arlequin Betrayed! Or, The Good Mother is a one-act “arlequinade” written in 1785 by Jean-Pierre Claris de Florian. This classical comedy is entirely in keeping with the conventions of the Commedia dell’arte.
Arlequin loves Lucette. Lucette loves Duval. Duval loves only himself, money and his ponytail! But Mathurine is going to set a delightful trap to make them drop their masks...
