Miles Gloriosus

Miles Gloriosus
Written by – Plautus
Directed by – Jim Butchart

April 29-May 3 at 7:30 pm
Barnett Theatre

Schemes, disguises, and trickery abound in Plautus' Miles Gloriosus, an Ancient Roman classic, which supplied comedic situations for Sondheim's A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum.  Pleusicles, with much help from his crafty slave and the next-door neighbor, plot to rescue his kidnapped girlfriend from the braggart warrior.  With a plan riddled with deception, masquerades, and role-playing in place, quick-wit becomes vital to their triumph as the rescue attempt is thwarted at every turn.  One of the best-known and liveliest Roman comedies, Miles Gloriosus will be a treat for all who attend.
