Parti Ridicole

Pantalone, a miserly old bachelor -- Chuck Minch
Flavio, his son, believes himself in love with Isabella -- Rowan Kramer
Colombina, their sassy young maid -- Emily Miller
Dottore Gratiano, Pantalone's bombastic neighbor -- Mannus
Isabella, his young daughter -- Amy Catherine Hermance
Flaminia, her younger sister, in love with Flavio -- Rebecca Robinson
Smeraldina, their foolish servant -- Megan M. Matthews
Fiorinetta, a procuress of great experience -- Karen Grant
Capitano Testosteroné, a boastful braggart -- Jess Rudolph
Arlecchino, his foolish servant -- Eleanor Fabic
Vittoria, a scheming gold-digger -- Lara Coutinho

Pantalone de Bisognosi is both the most miserly and oldest man in Venice, but that doesn't stop him from bragging about his supposedly exploits with women. The braggart Capitano Testosteroné sees a kindred spirit in Pantalone but the clueless Dottore Gratiano worries about Pantalone's health and so arranges for his beautiful young daughter Isabella to wed the miser - even if the greedy Vittoria wanted to marry Pantalone for his wealth, the lovelorn Flavio believed he the more eligible bachelor, and the experienced procuress Fiorinetta knows the hearts' true secrets. But when the completely unexpected happens and the lovely young lady actually agrees to wed the stingy old miser, Pantalone's left worrying just how potent his pouch actually is!
