Parson’s Nose Theater Presents 
The Servant of Two Masters

 Pasadena’s critically acclaimed 
professional, classical comedy 
theater company, continues 
their 2018-19 season with Carlo 
Goldoni’s farce, The Servant of 
Two Masters. This 75-minute 
version was adapted by and 
features PNT Artistic Director, 
Lance Davis.

 “We are delighted to spread 
a thick layer of Italian farce all 
over the month of February,” 
says Mr. Davis. “Carlo 
Goldoni’s 1750 classic retelling 
of a 16th Century improvised 
comedy kicks off our new 
year. I have created my own 
improvisation of the story of 
the hapless servant Truffaldino 
who reluctantly defies the 
Biblical caveat, “No man can 
serve two masters,” in order to 
buy a sandwich.

 “Lombardi’s son Silvio 
loves Clarice, but her father, 
Pantalone, has promised her 
to the wealthy dung merchant 
Federigo Rasponi, who is really 
Beatrice Aretusi disguised as 
a man searching for her lover, 
the tango teacher Florindo, so 
they can run off and open a 
dance studio in Brooklyn. It’s 
complicated. It’s also the classic 
foundation for every madcap 
farce from Bringing Up Baby to 
Seinfeld.

 “Join us for 75 minutes plus 
intermission, to socialize with 
wine and home-baked “Pat 
Bell” cookies in our historic 
Marston/Van Pelt chapel and 
forget your troubles. Bring 
friends and dine in Old 
Pasadena before or after. Kick 
off 2019 with something new!”

 The production stars the 
PNT Company, featuring 
Lance Davis as Truffaldino. 
Davis has appeared in over 
150 professional productions 
On- and Off-Broadway and 
throughout the U.S. He was 
a company member of the 
Tyrone Guthrie Theater 
Company in Minneapolis for 
five years and has been seen 
in a variety of television shows 
including Roseanne, Coach, 
Twin Peaks, Murphy Brown, 
and others. 18 years ago he 
Co-Founded Parson’s Nose 
with wife, Mary Chalon, and 
has been producing, adapting, 
directing, and acting with the 
company ever since.

 The cast of The Servant of 
Two Masters includes James 
Calvert as Lombardi, Marissa 
Chandler as Beatrice, Lance 
Davis as Truffaldino, John 
Harnagel as Brighella, Stuart 
Orloff as Silvio, John Rafter 
Lee as Florindo, Jill Rogosheske 
as Smeraldina, and Heather 
Taylor as Clarice. Directed by 
Lance Davis. Set by Jen Orsini. 
Costumes by Michael Mullen.

 Preview: February 8, Runs: 
February 9 – March 10, 2019. 
Fridays and Saturdays at 8pm, 
Sundays at 3pm.

 Parson’s Nose Theater is 
located at 95 N. Marengo Ave.
