July 7 -16, 2006 Play - The Liar. Carlo Goldoni's classic comedy has never been funnier than this delightful new translation and adaptation by Sara and Andrew Barnicle. The story centers on Lelio, a young Venetian incapable of telling the truth. As Lelio spins one outlandish whopper after another, complicatios multiply. Before long, Lelio has thrown the budding romances of two young sisters into turmoil, discredited their rightful suitors, deceived his own befuddled father, and created an impossible tangle of misunderstandings. Updated from the Commedia dell'arte of the Renaissance to the fashionable chic of Venice in the early 1960's, The Liar is lively and stylish comedy at its finest! Call: (714) 895-8150.
