Description: |
The most famous of the hilarious, heartbreaking comedies with which Marivaux shocked and delighted eighteenth-century Paris. A wickedly funny translation, as performed at the Royal National Theatre. |
Synopsis: |
In The Game of Love and Chance, a pair of prospective lovers each swap places with their servants, while their relatives, fully apprised of both deceptions, look on in amusement. Neil Bartlett's adaptation, first performed at the Lyric Hammersmith, finds incentive modern equivalents for Marivaux's ludic theatricality and its roots in the Commedia dell'Arte. |
