Mandrake Amoroso

Add a conniving servant and his amoral master; a murderous priest and his equally homicidal sidekick; a beautiful but barren wife wed to an ancient attorney; and a potion brewed from Mandragora, a root that allegedly helps women conceive, and we have a prescription for pandemonium, especially when Mandragora (known in less reputable circles as "God's Little Joke"), possesses a Fatal Flaw.
Filled with bawdy and irreverent wit, outrageous situations, and characters it would be grossly unwise to invite to dinner, this literate and sophisticated satirical comedy, written by the infamous Niccolò Machiavelli in 1520, and re-imagined by H.D. Greaves for contemporary audiences, is a delightful theatrical experience. It's also quite a lot of fun to read and re-read with friends.
