Carlo Goldoni News

There’s something wonderfully nuts about The Town Players of New Canaan taking on One Man, Two Guvnors, Richard Bean’s 2011 hit based on The Servant of Two Masters by Carlo Goldoni. The original, written in 1743, is a classic commedia dell’arte comedy built on disguises, twins, and glorious chaos.

There’s something wonderfully nuts about The Town Players of New Canaan taking on One Man, Two Guvnors, Richard Bean’s 2011 hit based on The Servant of Two Masters by Carlo Goldoni.

Cygnet Theatre has announced the eight productions that will make up its 2026–27 season, marking the company’s 22nd season overall and its second season at The Joan in the Arts District Liberty Station.

Whether or not you are familiar with this chaotic style of British comedy, Richard Bean’s One Man, Two Guv’nors offers an enjoyable introduction to fast-paced, wacky farce. And I mean wacky. There’s nothing serious or thought-provoking about it. There’s enough of that on the news. And “guv’nor” has nothing to do with politics. It’s a colloquial British term for one’s boss or employer, in this case two employers. Bean adapted the play, set in 1963 Brighton, from Carlo Goldoni’s 18th century classic The Servant of Two Masters.

While the large majority of plays that make it to Broadway were written in English, a small fraction of plays were originally penned in a different language and translated. 

I had the pleasure of attending for a few days, completely enveloped in the energy that filled the air. I first fell in love with Dubrovnik and this festival 14 years ago, when, as a student, I came here to spend the summer among the hot air, the Adriatic Sea, and a culture beyond imagination.

Traveling Players presents Carlo Goldoni's slapstick comedy, Servant of Two Masters.  The play will perform on weekends at the Traveling Players Studio in Tysons Corner Center. 

Tickets are now available for Traveling Players’ Summer Season, which will feature a variety of family-friendly plays throughout July at Tysons Corner Center.
