Set against the turmoil of revolutionary France, SCARAMOUCHE tells the story of Andre-Louis Moreau, a cynical young country lawyer “born with a gift of laughter and a sense that the world was mad.” When his idealistic friend is slain by a privileged aristocrat, he swears vengeance and, as an enemy of the state, goes into hiding with a commedia dell’arte troupe. Donning the mask of the schemer Scaramouche, he ignites a rebellious spirit among the populace and, in the process, discovers the power of love, compassion and commitment.
