FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE, PLEASEYOUR THEATRE, INC. PRESENTS "SCAPINO!"New Bedford - Your Theatre, Inc. will continue it's 51st season with the presentation of "Scapino!" by Frank Dunlop and Jim Dale. The play will be directed by MaryLee Vitale. Performances begin at 8:00 p.m. on Wednesday, May 6, 1998, through Saturday, May 9, a Sunday Matinee at 2:00 p.m. on May 10, and at 8:00 p.m. on Thursday, May 13 through Saturday, May 16."Scapino! a long way off from Molière" received rave reviews from every critic on Broadway! This inspired comic madness is based on Molière's "Les Fourberies de Scapin." The Commedia dell'Arte play is set in Naples and begins with a song made up from the menu at an Italian restaurant! Immediately, we are plunged into the situation as Ottavio cries, "I am lost! I am ruined! What am I to do? Disaster after disaster!" Into this comes Scapino who states, "The good Lord has blessed me with quite a genius for clever ideas and inspired inventions which the less talented, in their jealousies, call deceits and trickery!" At one point, with the girl's father hiding in a huge sack, Scapino pretends to be a Japanese waiter shouting, "Ah so - Kung Fu - there is something moving in the saki! I am going to give one gigantic karate chop suey to the saki!" At another time, two young men jump into an imaginary sea of Naples, stand up, raise their arms and cry, "Splash!" It's mad delight! For reservations call Your Theatre at 508-993-0772. Tickets are $7.00 on Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday, $9.00 on Friday and Saturday. Senior Citizen and Student discounts are available. |
