A hilarious retelling, in commedia dell’arte style, of the
true rivalry between Carlo Goldoni (The Servant of
Two Masters) and Carlo Gozzi (Turandot) in the 18th
Century. Comedy of Venice received an Individual
Artist Award from the Maryland State Arts Council.
The script is available via email.

and full blown hilarity.”
