The text is a comedy in three acts built on the principles of the Commedia dell’arte, with Arlechino and Trivelin, essential characters of this type of theatrical improvisation, and a surprisingly modern structure for the time when it was written (the end of the 18th century). It was first put on stage in 1723, by Italian comedians, at the famous Theatre of “Hôtel de Bourgogne” in Paris.
INFORMAȚII
Just like other comedies by Marivaux, such as The Game of Love and Chance, Slave Island, The Triumph of Love, The False Servant and The Double Inconsistency, many of the characters around which the story is built belong to the Commedia dell’arte, with scenes solved in a comical note by the famous Arlechino, unsuspected drama, unspoken love, hallucinating secrets, unequalled betrayal and unprecedented conflicts. All good comedies have good endings. Will the prince eventually find the true love of his dreams? Will Arlechino end up inconsolable or will there be two wedding in the end?!
