Play :: Two masterpieces of classic comedy, The Haunted House by Plautus and The Eunuch by Terence...the kind of popular entertainment which would have drawn the crowds in ancient Rome. Bursting with vitality, and peopled with young lovers, pompous fathers, wily slaves and boastful soldiers, this was the theatre which provided the inspiration for [Molière], Restoration comedy and countless others. As fast and funny as when they were first seen over 2000 years ago.
