could play it for our purposes.

STORY
    Love is in the air in Naples, Italy.  Two young men, Ottavio and
Leandro, are left, by their miserly fathers, Argante and Geronte
(respectively) in the care of two not-so-attentive servants, Sylvestro and
Scapino (also respectively).   Naturally both young men become involved with
young women who are not at all of the sort their fathers plan for them.
 When the fathers return it becomes up to Scapino, a master trickster, to
set everything back to right.  This is a funny, circus of a play, but in a
rather offbeat sort of way.
