“THE COMPLETE PACKAGE”
Capitano Virtuoso has sent his servant, Richelina, to retrieve an order he’s
been eagerly awaiting—but before this package can find its way home,
it will go on a journey all over town, slipping through the hands of a
wily servant, a starstruck lover, and two greedy old men. Join Faction
of Fools, DC’s award-winning Commedia dell’arte Theatre Company,
for this jam-packed two-person 50 minute adventure!
