About the Show

by Paul Slade Smith
Number-cruncher Ned Newly is a complete unknown with a paralyzing fear of public speaking and no political instincts — he certainly doesn’t want to be Governor. But when his boss gets booted after a scandal, Ned is catapulted into the public eye. With the election just days away, his oddball team of consultants scramble to give him a political makeover. The Outsider is a hilarious, non-partisan send-up of modern American politics and an inspirational tribute to democracy.

By Carlo Goldoni, Translated and adapted by Jeffrey Hatcher and Paolo Emilio Landi; Directed by Scott Ford

With its fast-paced physical comedy, witty wordplay and colorful characters, THE SERVANT OF TWO MASTERS is a rollicking and entertaining romp that will have audiences laughing from start to finish.
This timeless masterpiece of comedic theater, which has been delighting audiences for centuries, is now cleverly updated and translated for modern audiences. Its deliciously funny plot, colorful characters and uproarious humor make it a must-see for anyone who loves great theater.
