This comedy is a critically-acclaimed production about a tough-guy thug trying to keep his two employers apart. Tickets are $25 regular, $20 seniors, and $15 for students and children.

Nicholas Hytner's production by English playwright Richard Bean is based on "The Servant of Two Masters" by Carlo Goldoni, with songs by Grant Olding.

The "classic comedy, hilariously updated" (The Times) transfers to London's West End in November. National Theatre Live is an initiative by the UK's National Theatre to broadcast live performances onto cinema screens around the world.
