SCAPINO

By Frank Dunlap & Jim Dale
Directed by Dave Cotton


Performance dates are June 25th thru July 12th, 2009

Love strikes in Naples, Italy, just at the most amusing moment! Two young men, Ottavio and Leandro, are left, by their miserly fathers, Argante and Geronte (respectively), in the care of two not-so-attentive servants, Sylvestro and Scapino (also respectively). Of course both young fellows fall in love with young women totally incompatible with their fathers' plans for an arranged marriage! Upon the fathers' return, all hopes, eyes, and gratuitous culinary items are directed toward Scapino, a master of trickery and cunning, to solve the mess and put everything back to rights again.

Rave reviews from every critic on Broadway!
With the first line of the play, we plunge into the situation as Octavio cries, "I am lost! I am ruined! What am I to do? My world is crumbling around me. 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!"
"See this Naples and die—laughing." (New York Magazine).
