With an updated text by Bill Irwin and Mark O'Donnell from Moliere’s original script, Scapin is a madcap romp complete with plenty of physical comedy. The production tells the story of four star-crossed lovers. Since the path of true love rarely runs smoothly, it is up to the faithful servant Scapin to use disguises and tricks to untangle the web of confusion that surrounds the lovers.
