Scapin

Lantern Theater Company

December 3, 2009-January 10, 2010

Avg. Event Rating (4.5 Stars): Add Review/Comment

Adaptors Bill Irwin (The Happiness Lecture) and Mark O'Donnell soak Molière's sharp-edged comedy in Vaudevillian clownery! This offbeat re-imagining of the classic puts Molière's famous servant Scapin at the center of an inventive interaction between actors and puppets. Scapin is directed by Aaron Cromie, known as a performer, director, and puppeteer from projects such as The Foocy, The Comedy of Errors, Travels with my Aunt, and The Fantasticks. Enjoy serious silliness in a production stuffed with chase scenes, revenge plots, slapstick and spoofery, live music, and lots of theater magic for the entire family.
