This dreamlike play will leave you wondering whether to trust your own eyes. There are enigmatic newcomers in town: the dark, intense, 'Ponza', his shy, rather eccentric mother-in-law 'Signora Frola'; and his reclusive young wife. No one understands their bizarre living arrangements. Everyone has a different theory as to the truth - and no one will countenance any other explanation. No one, that is, except for the wry and elegant 'Laudisi'. He mischievously offers to establish the truth - and takes delight in his neighbours' growing frustration as they watch: 'fantasy and reality dancing together, rather gracefully in fact - and suddenly you can't tell the difference between them'.T1798147795Producer Sonia Friedman Productions.
