Who among us hasn’t suffered for love, even making a fool of ourselves in the eyes of others? What other feeling stirs our souls as deeply as mad love? It is therefore necessary to restage this masterpiece by Goldoni, which reminds us just how foolish and comical our behavior can still be today when we fall in love—but also how fragile, defenseless, and at the mercy of the waves of the heart we can be.
