| La Locandiera (Mirandolina, the Hostess at the Inn) |
On International Tour throughout 2010, Goldoni’s Classic Italian Comedy as Dinner Theatre.
Classic comedy, live music and fine dining - La Locandiera transforms restaurants into eighteenth century Florentine Inns. The seductive innkeeper Mirandolina has every man at her feet they cover her in diamonds and cower about her like puppy dogs. Until 'the declared enemy of Italian women' - the Ulster Gentleman checks in. Piqued, Mirandolina vows to vindicate her sex by making him fall in love with her. Who will lose the night? The misogynist Gent or the seductive Locandiera? 'La Locandiera' is one of Italy's most celebrated comedies. Wonderland's sparkling period production includes a delicious dinner, accompanied by a generous helping of Neapolitan arias and folk songs from Mirandolina and her admirers. All tickets include a scrumptious Italian dinner.
