Casanova Dreaming
by Martine Foreman
Asleep in bed with his first true love, nineteen-year-old Giacomo Casanova is visited by an old man who shows him his future - but is what he sees a promise or a warning? In this one-act play the life of the eighteenth-century libertine is laid bare. intelligent, charming and generous - and proud, insecure and dishonest - Casanova spent a lifetime in the capitals of Europe, making and losing fortunes, fighting duels, spying and escaping prison, while seducing over a hundred women. A great lover, a sexual predator or a man whose virtues and vices were evenly balanced? Casanova Dreaming poses the question; audiences must give their own answer.
