Department of Drama presents Carlos Goldoni’s “Mirandolina,
Mistress of the Inn” April 20-22 on TWU’s Denton

The play’s
namesake is a young woman who runs the inn she inherited from
her father. Guests at the inn include the Marquis of Forlipopopoli
and the Count of Albafafioritita, two clumsy noblemen who
seek to win Mirandolina’s heart. A third guest, the
Baron of Ripafrattata, is an avowed woman-hater who wants
nothing to do with Mirandolina. Viewing this as a challenge,
Mirandolina is determined to make the baron fall in love with
her. Her success only complicates matters further.

as Ripafratta, Josh Hancock (Kilgore) as the Marquis, Brad
