NOV 24 to DEC 17

It’s springtime in Paris, 1738. Poets are the rock stars of the day, and young people like Damis have gone métromanie—crazy for poetry. So verse-crazed is Damis, he falls in love with his favorite poetess, not knowing that his idol is actually a wealthy, middle-aged gentleman writing under a pen name! As said gentleman looks to marry off his beautiful but dimwitted daughter, we are off and running in a breathless series of complications, plot twists, and mistaken identities. Soon, scheming servants, verbal acrobatics, and mistaken identities launch abreathless series of twists and turns in this breezy translation/adaptation of a rediscovered French farce by comedic master David Ives.

Considerations: Sexual innuendo and mild adult language.

A marvel of old and new, with punchlines that glisten with classical flair and contemporary savvy! Frisky, competitive wordplay, and high-octane mix-ups…almost criminally enjoyable.” — Washington Post
