HOTEL AMORE takes you back in time to 1950’s Italy and follows the story of the prized Sapphire which rests in the greedy hands of the rich (and cheap) Pantalone and is to be auctioned off by the (questionably) smart Il Dottore at The Hotel Amore. However, little does Pantalone know what truth comes from this stone he stole all those years ago from the beautiful La Signora. Love *ouuu*, passive aggressive hate *aahhh*, and thievery *gasp* will unfold before your eyes as this troop of players tell the tale of secrets, scandals, and sapphires!
Will Pantalone part from his beloved sapphire? Will Mr. and Mrs. Pulcinella handle this many people in their hotel? Will Flavio and Flaminia ever not be disgustingly in love? Will Il Capitano use his manly skills to defeat his enemies? Will Arlecchino finally eat? Only time will tell!
Devised by Susan Bertoia & the UBC BFA in Acting class of 2019
