Based on Menecmi, a greek comedy, Venetian Twins tells the story of two brothers, one wise, the other stupid, who happen to be in the same town.

 Carlo Goldoni

One to marry a girl he has never seen, the other to find his fiancee, escaped from Venice. The misunderstanding are countless and extremely funny.  A complex plot in the style of the comedy of errors but with a tragic prefinal: the stupid brother, Zanetto dies poisoned.
