romantic” (Ludwig 12).

12-13).

Tito and trying to conceal Tito’s apparent death
Julia and Maggie betray Saunders by lying to him about their whereabouts
20. Mistaken Identity
After the “death” of Tito Merelli, Saunders comes up with an
elaborate plan to not only keep Tito’s death a secret for now,
but also save the show that night. He enlists his assistant, Max,
to play the part of Othello and impersonate Tito for just the
performance until they can announce his death.
And the fun begins…

Two Tito’s: one sleeps with Maggie and the other with Diana

same time

only for him to end up in the bathroom

and tie and out of the disguise
23. Performance Info:
What is a “Farce”?
“Light, dramatic composition that uses highly improbable situations,
stereotyped characters, violent horseplay, and broad humor. Farce is
generally regarded as intellectually and aesthetically inferior to comedy in
its crude characterizations and implausible plots, but it has remained
popular throughout the West from ancient times to the present.” –
Merriam-Webster Dictionary
a funny play or movie about ridiculous situations and events
the style of humor that occurs in a farce
a light dramatic composition marked by broadly satirical comedy and
improbable plot
24. Themes in Farce
Mistaken Identity
Improbable situations (everything goes wrong)
Sexual innuendos
Word Play
Fast-Paced Plot
No boring moments
Stereotypical characters
Chase scenes are expected (multiple)
Sophisticated Verbal Humor (can be combined with physical humor; a lot of
slapstick)
25. Lots of doors opening and closing
Characters just missing each other when they
enter/exit
“A farce can be defined as a comic theatrical work
that uses buffoonery, horseplay and ludicrously
improbable situations. Often, the plot depends
upon a dexterously exploited circumstance rather
than upon the development of character.”
