The location is Paris, 1643. Dorante, a charming young man new in the 
capital, who has but a single flaw; he cannot tell the truth.He meets 
Cliton, a manservant who cannot tell a lie, and falls in love with 
Clarice, who he mistakes for her friend Lucrece.Our hero does not know 
that Clarice is secretly engaged to his best friend Alcippe.Nor is he 
aware that his father is trying to get him married to Clarice, whom he 
thinks is Lucrece, who actually is in love with him.

>From all these misunderstandings springs one of the Western world's 
greatest comedies, a sparkling urban romance as fresh as the day Pierre 
Corneille wrote it, brilliantly adapted for today by /All in the 
Timing's/ David Ives.

Geronte/), Mark Stephens (/Cliton/), Jennifer Van Iderstyne (/Clarice/),

Scott (/Philiste/), and Cristine M. Loffredo (/Isabelle/Sabine/).
