THE INNKEEPER

Turrini's classic, built on the motifs of Goldoni's Mirandolina, tells a story of love overshadowed by money.

THE INNKEEPER

In a masterful adaptation of Carlo Goldoni's masterpiece, the unmarried and self-assured Mirandolina, the innkeeper in Florence, faces an unusual daily problem - how to get rid of persistent men who revolve around her. Competing for her favor is a wealthy count who tries to win her over with expensive gifts, an impoverished but eloquent marquis, and Fabrizio, a waiter and small-time Neapolitan swindler with proletarian charm. Only the knight de Ripafratta resists the captivating innkeeper. Hence, he becomes Mirandolina's new target - she uses all her seduction skills to win the knight's favor. Despite his resistance, she manages to gain his trust "because she is the only woman in the world with whom one can have a conversation." Soon, he joins the circle of men vying for the innkeeper's love, creating a ridiculous carnival of male vanity.
