This faithful and vivid translation by Braham Muray and Katherine Sand was first performed at the Royal Exchange Theatre, Manchester in 2007.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn The Game of Love and Chance, a pair of prospective lovers each swap places with their servants, while their relatives, fully apprised of both deceptions, look on in amusement. Neil Bartlett's adaptation, first performed at the Lyric Hammersmith, finds inventive modern equivalents for Marivaux's ludic theatricality and its roots in the Commedia dell'Arte.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oberon Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47131508769008,"sku":"9781849439626","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781849439626_p0.jpg?v=1763752768","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781849439626","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
