Μαλώματα, παρεξηγήσεις, έρωτες σ' ένα ψαροχώρι της Ιταλίας και μια θαυμάσια ηθογραφική προσέγγιση της μικρής κοινωνίας της Κιότζια σε φαρσικούς ρυθμούς και με τη χαρακτηρολογική μαεστρία που διακρίνει τα ώριμα έργα του Κάρλο Γκολντόνι. Η ειλικρίνεια των χαρακτήρων και η φρενιτιώδης αντιμετώπιση κάθε κατάστασης που προκύπτει, προσδίδουν στο έργο σημερινούς ρυθμούς και το καθιστούν άκρως ενδιαφέρον για τον σύγχρονο θεατή.
Carlo Osvaldo Goldoni was an Italian playwright and librettist from the Republic of Venice. His works include some of Italy's most famous and best-loved plays. Audiences have admired the plays of Goldoni for their ingenious mix of wit and honesty. His plays offered his contemporaries images of themselves, often dramatizing the lives, values, and conflicts of the emerging middle classes. Though he wrote in French and Italian, his plays make rich use of the Venetian language, regional vernacular, and colloquialisms. Goldoni also wrote under the pen name and title "Polisseno Fegeio, Pastor Arcade," which he claimed in his memoirs the "Arcadians of Rome" bestowed on him.
A prime example of Goldoni's commedia dell'arte. The story of women who are left on their own for months on end and have nothing better to do than fight and make up.
