Les Fourberies de Scapin (literally, "Scapin's Deceits") is a three-act comedy Classic Theatre Presents: Scapin
Adapted from Moliere by Bill Irwin and Mark O’Donnell

Directed by Matthew Byron Cassi
San Antonio, TX— Vaudeville and Commedia Dell' Arte are seamlessly woven into an uproarious fable of scheming lovers, mistaken identities, and clownish greedy servants. Balancing on a delicately taut tightrope of mischief and revenge, the crafty servant Scapin promises to help two pairs of wide-eyed lovers while juggling an array of elaborate disguises to keep their wealthy fathers from discovering the truth. Remaining true to Moliere's classic farcical tale from the seventeenth century, this fresh and side-splitting adaptation adds a late twentieth century spin to the language and hilarious non-stop action. This production features some of San Antonio's most talented actors including recent Juliard School of Drama graduate Brendan Spieth in the titular role.

Scapin: “Well, they say I have a certain esprit, a way with words, with ingenious fancies and pretty deceptions.”
