AHIR vaig anar a... veure l'obra de teatre Un Jeta Dos Jefes al Teatre Victòria de Barcelona.
Yesterday I went to see the play Un Jeta, Dos Jefes (One Man, two Governors) at Teatre Victòria of Barcelona.
L’obra s’ambienta en els anys seixanta. Acomiadat de la seva banda, Dino es converteix en guardaespatlles de Mario. Però Mario és en realitat María usurpant la identitat del seu germà mort, assassinat pel seu promès Sebastián… In 1960s Brighton, an easily confused Francis Henshall becomes separately employed by two men – Roscoe Crabbe, a local gangster and Stanley Stubbers, an upper class criminal.

Dino aprofita l’oportunitat de treballar també al mateix temps per a Sebastián. Però amb la finalitat d’evitar ser descobert haurà de mantenir als seus dos “jefes” lluny l’un de l’altre… Francis tries to keep the two from meeting, in order to avoid each of them learning that Francis is also working for someone else. However, it turns out that Roscoe is really Rachel Crabbe in disguise, her twin brother Roscoe having been killed by her lover, who is none other than Stanley Stubbers. Mixed in with these chaotic events is Pauline Clench who was originally meant to marry Roscoe but is now set to elope with over the top amateur actor Alan Dangle.
Aquesta nova versió s’ha convertit en un dels èxits mes clamorosos del National Theatre des de la seva estrena al setembre de 2011. Donat aquest èxit, l’obra es va traspassar al West End on segueix representant-se actualment. És una comèdia basada en Il servitore di due padroni, de Carlo Goldoni. One Man, Two Governors is a play by Richard Bean, an English adaptation of Servant of Two Masters (Italian: Il servitore di due padroni), a 1743 Commedia dell'arte style comedy play by the Venetian playwright Carlo Goldoni. The play replaces the Italian period setting of the original with Brighton in 1963. The play opened at the National Theatre in 2011, toured in the UK and then opened in the West End in November 2011, with a subsequent Broadway opening in April 2012.

Un Jeta, dos Jefes reprensenta la comèdia en la seva màxima expressió, amb actors que es cauen per les escales, cops de porta, malentesos, i la permanent complicitat amb el públic. The play represents comedy at its finest, with actors who fall down stairs, banging doors, misunderstandings, and ongoing involvement with the public... it includes two extended passages of improvisation where audience members are recruited into the play.
