The Mercutio Troupe and RareWorks Theatre Company present: The Fools, a new musical staged reading written and directed by Amalia Goshtigian.
Much to the dismay of her admirers, Columbina is betrothed to the lecherous Pantalone. In an attempt to disrupt the marriage, Arlecchino recruits Pierrette, Columbina’s best friend, to write and deliver love letters to her. His plan backfires, however, when Pierrette and Columbina fall in love instead. With Columbina’s world turned upside down, she must decide if her newfound love is worth losing the security of the charade she knows so well– and she must decide before her wedding!
