Scapin

Playhouse on the Square

March 14-April 13, 2008

Add Review/Comment

Vaudeville and Commedia dell'arte are seamlessly woven into an uproarious fable of scheming lovers, mistaken identities, and clownish greedy servants. Balancing on a delicately taut tightrope of mischief and revenge, the crafty servant Scapin promises to help two pairs of wide-eyed lovers while juggling an array of elaborate disguises to keep their wealthy fathers from discovering the truth. Remaining true to Moliere's classic farcical tale from the seventeenth century, this fresh and side-splitting adaptation adds a late twentieth century spin to the language and hilarious non-stop action.

    I saw this show opening weekend and can definitely say this is one of the best shows I have seen in a long time. The cast has such energy and the main character portrayed Buddy to the "t". My most favorite moment was when Chris McCollum sang Richie Vallen's "La Bamba". It rocked the house!!! That kid is going to go far! Collapse

    I went to see this play over the opening weekend and was blown away by the music and acting. It has easily pushed aside so many of my favorite stage plays to rock to #1 in my book. Todd Meredith is a believable Buddy Holly and the cast is amazing! I especially enjoyed the Apollo Singer. This is one of those plays that shouts Encore! Collapse
