A description of the play:

>From the 15th century on, the Jewish community of Mantua produced Italian commedias for Carnival celebrations at the ducal court. Playwright and academician Leone de Sommi (1525 - 1590) wrote and produced many such plays, including the innovative Hebrew-language A Comedy of Betrothal, a scripted comedy in five acts.

Newfangled Productions joins Ensemble Ciaramella (a group modeled on the theatrical musical ensembles of the early 17th century) to present a theatrical production based on this important and entertaining work. With dialogue in English and songs in Hebrew, the production draws on commedia dell 'arte gesture and historical dance.

This production has been adapted by Anna Levenstein and Omri Lavin.
Directed by Megan Elk.
