A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum

On a street in ancient Rome, three houses stand side by side.

In one, we have Hero and his slave, Pseudolus. Next door, Marcus Lycus and his courtesans. The third house belongs to Erronius, who is searching for his children, long ago stolen by pirates.

Pseudolus is desperate to be free from Hero, who loves the courtesan Philia, who is employed by Lycus and promised to Miles Gloriosis. When Pseudolus agrees to help Hero win Philia’s love in order to secure his own freedom, we find ourselves in a comedic tangle like no other! How does it all work out?

Tickets: $20 adults, $15 students; available at InfoSource and at the door.
