Additional information:
Preparation: One classical comedic monologue, and one contrasting monologue

The play: The Amorous Servant is a classic Italian farce that follows the
supremely devoted Corallina as she manipulates her master and the Panzoni
family all in the name of true Honour.

Characters:
Corallina:   Devoted to Florindo, Corallina must juggle the role of
matchmaker, flirt, wit and most importantly, conscience for the entire
Panzoni family.
Beatrice:     Ottavio’s second wife who is digging straight for the jackpot.
Reeking of ambition, Beatrice wraps herself in equal parts charm and malice
to get her way.
Rosaura:    Daughter to Pantalone, she is surprisingly even keeled, if
slightly lost.
Ottavio Panzoni:  An aging patriarch, well lodged under his wife’s thumb. He
twists himself into knots trying to please those around him.
Florindo:    Ottavio’s son is a lover lost in his own daydream.
Lelio:   Beatrice’s son is a dolt with an ego for miles.
Pantalone:   A rich Venetian merchant, has a charitable soul and a keen eye
for catching friends in distress.
Brighella:    Servant to Pantalone, falls face first in love, while
faithfully holding up his serving tray.
Arlecchino: Servant to Ottavio, a spirited clown and benevolent trickster.

Mask and movement skills are assets.
