Menander was "the most popular writer of the ancient world after Homer."
Ambassador Theater presents its own production of Menander’s Dyskolos, an ancient Greek comedy of romance, fools, and schemers. Everyone from Shakespeare and Moliere to the Marx brothers and the Three Stooges owes a debt to Menander and Dyskolos.
The play follows the adventure of a wealthy young man who falls magically in love with a poor farmer’s daughter. With the help of friends and servants he struggles to overcome the objections of her misanthropic father. Meanwhile, servants try to prepare a feast nearby, but are met with endless difficulties. This 90-minute romp is full of slapstick comedy and jokes!
