Mistaken identities, reunited lovers, and over-the-top hilarity! When a man thought dead shows up at the house of his former fiancee, all sorts of madcap mayhem breaks loose! Filled with disguises, plot twists and Marx brothers-style slapstick, Servant of Two Masters is a laugh-out-loud comedy for all ages based on the beloved characters of commedia dell’arte. With nightly pre-shows by other performing arts groups around Austin, this free outdoor performance at the Round Rock Amphitheater is pure summer fun.

Auditions for

A Servant of Two Masters

Saturday, April 23

About the show | Audition Information | Character Descriptions

We're kicking of our 2011-12 season with a fabulous farce, A Servant of Two Masters. Written in the style of commedia dell'arte, this hilarious classic keeps audiences roaring through hysterical plot complications, bold characterizations, and extreme physical mayhem later employed by comic icons like the Marx Brothers.

The show, directed by Beth Burns (Taming of the Shrew, You Wouldn't Know Her, etc.), will be presented free to the public, thanks to a generous partnership with the City of Round Rock Parks and Recreation Department. It runs August 4-21 at the Round Rock Downtown Plaza and August 26-27 at EmilyAnn Theatre & Gardens.
