In the absence of Chris Houg
lum, esteemed Emerald critic
emeritus, this writer has been
pressed into service and the
following critique of the I'm
-•ersity Theatre s current pro
dncUoa "The Serv ant of Two
Masters." by Carlo Goldoni, ap
pears in print.
Of course, there is the prob
lem of what it was that I saw.
Any mild mannered theatre -
goer would consider it a simple
comedy with a touch of slap
stick Bu{ -salt. Don bisboff.
Register-Guard counter part to
the absent Hougtom. terms it:
. . the widly comic farce of
the conunedia dell arte So
thats what it was And he
should know You learn some
thing every day
Anyhow, the storyline is
simple There is this serv ant.
and he is an enterprising soul
and works for two masters at
the same time Good
But one master is a young
woman, disguised as her broth
er. the brother being -lair, who
is looking for her loser, the
killer of her brother Actually
it was a duel Or something.
Fine. So the problem is. the
brother is the other master
Right It isn’t much of a plot
To complicate things, add two
more lovers, a pair of fathers,
a brace of waiters a hand
maiden and a chef And now
for why it was an enjoyable
show.
For one Robert Gage as
Truffaidino. the bumbling serv
ant and Deborah Franks as
Smeraldina the handmaiden.

were oui-ianaing in u»e«r in
dividual characterizations Good
stage movement, adept gestures
and an over all well delivered
repertee too* the audtenee
through other wise slow-moving
plot sections Pantomime was
especially well-used m several
instances.
Chilton Cunningham, as the
disguised girl, handled the alien
role m tine form and delivered
her lines and audience-asides
with great effectiveness
Equally effective was Lou
Salerni. the over wrought, arm
waving, foot stomping Doctor
Lombardi, an ev er picked on ex
tremely frustrated old man
Action took place in a square
of Venice and on the steps of
an inn. The set was simple, yet
believeable, and mechanics of
scene changes were accomplish
ed flawlessly by a building front
dropped from above. Lights and
sound were excellent
In short, though the story
line is nothing new and the end
ing predictable 1 they all lived
happily ever after), the show
does sparkle with a number of
good lines, some good laughs
and a narawr i>l good perform
ances II protides a relaxing
evening of entertainment, with
no real moral burden to inter

at least to the mild mannered
and that was hopefully the ba
sic intent U so. they succeeded
