Additional Notes

Scala called this “The Tragic Events” here it is called “The Vendetta”, or “The feud”.
In this play, it is an easy exercise to trim out several of the extra characters to make this playable by a smaller troupe.
This is one of the shorter plays in Scala’s collection. It could benefit from some more scenes to give Franceschina some comic relief with the other servants.
