Emperor of the Moon

Sobre este libro

A Restoration farce by a successful woman playwright. "Doctor Baliardo, a Neapolitan philosopher, has so applied himself to the study of the Moon, and is enraptured to such an extent with the mysteries of that orb, that he has come steadfastly to believe in a lunar world, peopled, ruled and regulated like the earth. This wholly fills and absorbs his every waking thought, and, in consequence, he denies his daughter Elaria and his niece Bellemante to their respective lovers, the Viceroy’s two nephews, Don Cinthio and Don Charmante, as being men of mere terrestial mould." - Summary by Montague Summers, 1915 Cast list: Doctor Baliardo: Adrian Stephens Scaramouch, his Man: Anna Maria Pedro, his Boy: Mira Williams Don Cinthio, Nephew to the Vice-Roy, and Lover of Elaria: Greg Giordano Don Charmante, Nephew to the Vice-Roy, and Lover of Bellemante: Tchaikovsky Harlequin, Cinthio’s Man: Alan Mapstone Officer: Sonia Clerk: Susan Essary Stentor: James R.
