Marivaux's 1730 comedy. Silvia's father, Mr Prowde, is keen to marry her off - and has invited an eligible young bachelor to the family home for the weekend. However, Dorant, the beau in question, has decided that he'd like to take a look at his intended in disguise - and so swaps places with his manservant. Unbeknownst to him, though, Silvia has had a similar idea - and exchanges clothes with her maid.T1277351435Adapted by Quentin Beroud. Adapted by Jack Gamble. Design Louie Whitemore.
