Adapted by Talia Felix from the stageplay The Two Harlequins, this is rendered into a scenario suitable for improvisation.
Plot: The elderly Gerontes seeks the hand of Isabella, and he enlists the help of his servant Harlequin -- but confusion arises when Harlequin's twin brother unexpectedly comes to town.
