Two pairs of star-crossed lovers are faced with a duo of wealthy, buffoonish businessmen determined to guarantee they will not get their happy ending. Enter Scapin, a servant with a talent for schemes and scams who is always more than willing to put one over on the upper classes. For Scapin no lie is too outrageous and no plot is too outlandish when it comes to assuring that true love finds its way.

Through a dizzying blend of emotional blackmail, physical assault, disguises and subterfuge, Scapin will utilize his enormous talents to assure that all is well before the final curtain comes down. This adaptation of Moliere's classic is in rhymed verse.
