The plot introduction of Boccaccio

There was a brisk overture before the opening ceremony.

Act I The square in front of the church in Villa San Mariano

On the left of the stage is the Catholic Church of Villa San Mariano, and on the right is calka Barber Shop, with a fountain in the middle.

Today is Saint John's Day, the patron saint of Florence. Beggar Keke arranged begging places for his partners, encouraging each other that today is a good day to make money, and he must pretend to be poor. When Berdridge's husband, Ska, found out that he was not at home, Leonet took the key she gave him and sneaked into the barber's house.

People flocked to the square one after another, singing happily to celebrate the festival. At this time, the bookseller on the truck full of new books shouted, "New books, new books are published"! This is a novel written by Boccaccio that satirizes men. Very popular with women, women around to buy. But the man said angrily that all women who read this guy's books will become ghosts. When the bookseller pulled the van out of the square, everyone followed.

Boccaccio and others wanted to meet Fiomada after everyone had left, so he quietly walked into her house. Then, Luo Tianji and Lamber Tuqiao appeared together. Calka came back unexpectedly when they scolded Boccaccio to pieces and turned an enemy into an enemy. He said that he missed his wife very much during the trip, so he went home one day early. By chance, they met more Prince Palermo who wanted to come to Florence, so they went together. He knocked on the door, but there was no reply at all. Thinking that his wife was still sleeping, he serenaded.

Frightened by her husband's sudden return, Bedrich quickly figured out a way to run out of the house and shouted "Help". When she ran to her husband, she turned blue and cried, "What a terrible thing! A man fled home and told me that he was about to be hunted. I told him to hide. In a flash, he rushed to another man, waving his sword angrily. By this time, the two men were already fighting in the house! "

While these four neurotic men were hesitating in fear, two young men wore masks and walked out of the house while fighting. Calka was frightened, and quickly took his wife into the house and locked the door. Luo Tianqi and others also ran away. When everyone dispersed, the two friends took off their masks and laughed heartily. Boccaccio told the assembled students that a novel theme was added at this time, and he sang the aria "A Young Man Standing there".

After the students were separated, calka reminded his wife that the gate must be locked at any time, and then went to the square and walked to the church. Then, Luo Tianji, his wife Isabella, the grocer and his wife Berrone took their adopted daughter Fiammada to the church. At this time, Fiamma's eyes were looking around, hoping to see the young people she met every time she went to church. Boccaccio quietly went to Fiya Motor in order not to be discovered by Bolong.

At this time, Bolong told his adopted daughter: "The gentleman who sends alimony every month says that you will get married soon." Berrone said that she hated marriage without love, so she sang If He Loves Me (love is a tender wild flower).

Boccaccio suddenly appeared in front of them and gave the holy water to the surprised Fiya Motor. Berrone said, "You are a pious young man" and took her daughter to church. At this time, the Prince of Palermo appeared more and more. He said to himself, "Although I decided to marry the daughter of the Grand Duke of Florence, I really want to experience the love with the Florence girl described by Boccaccio in the novel.

When Leonet, a student, came out to talk with Boccaccio, he was very happy that the most famous Italian novelist was close at hand, so he went to him, gave him a pen name and asked to accept him as an apprentice. Unexpectedly, Boccaccio said that if you want to experience love instead of writing novels, then Leonet is the most suitable teacher, and then he ran away.

Leonet said, "If you want to experience it for yourself, what about that woman?" At the same time, he pointed to Isabella, the wife of Cuppucci who had just come out. Bi Yiduo said happily that such a beautiful woman was of course satisfied, and then couldn't wait to go to her and make an appointment for a tryst tomorrow. When Bi Yiduo wanted to report to Boccaccio and ask Leonet where he lived, Luo Tianji and Lamber Tuqiao happened to pass by and heard it. They mistakenly thought Bi Yiduo was Boccaccio, so they decided to punish him, so they chased Bi Yiduo.

Then Boccaccio appeared disguised as a beggar, approached Fiammada, who had just come out of the church, and poured out his love to her. As soon as she heard the voice, she knew it was Boccaccio. She summoned up her courage and sang a beautiful duet with him. After she left, Leonet ran to warn Boccaccio to escape, so they disappeared. When Luo Tianji and others chased him, they said with regret that these ghosts and spirits had escaped again, so they sang in unison to find Boccaccio who spread evil to the city and let him suffer.

When calka, the barber, was left alone, a group of students came up and clamored for a haircut. He said he didn't want to open a shop now, but he refused. At this time, Luo Tianji and others pulled Bila, who was mistaken for Boccaccio, up, and then everyone punched and kicked. Seeing this scene, calka also ran out of the store. Seeing that Bobby was beaten more, he immediately shouted at everyone's atrocities and told them that this man was the Prince of Palermo who came to Florence with him. Only then did everyone understand that the wrong person, and because the other person was a prince, knelt on the ground in fear and begged for mercy, the prince could only painfully forgive this group of savages.

At this time, the mysterious bookseller appeared again, and Luo Tianji angrily incited everyone to burn all these books. The students protested that even if the book was burned, the shadow still existed. It's like someone set fire to it and someone robbed it. It's a mess.

Act II Lambert Tujo's backyard and the square next to Luo Tianji's factory

Boccaccio, Leonet and Piedo appeared together. Not only Isabella is the target, Boccaccio wants to have a tryst with Fiomada, but because the foster mother Veron is in the way, she asks Leonet to distract her. After that, the three serenaded under the windows of different targets.

At this time, because Luo Tianqi came back, the three men quickly hid. Luo Tianji began to make barrels and sang "The Song of Making Barrels" with his disciples. Luo Tianji said that he would send the cask to the hotel, and then he went with his disciples and drank it by the way. The three men immediately presented the love letter to their lovers, and the women excitedly read the love letter and sang this "Letter Trio".

First Beecher sneaked into Isabella's house, but since the owner came back soon, she introduced this as a customer who came to buy a bucket. Because the leak-proof asphalt in the vat has not been coated, when the husband climbed into the bucket to work, the two took the opportunity to flirt. On the other hand, although Ray Leonet tried his best to court Veron La, he also went into hiding because of his master's return.

At this time, Boccaccio, disguised as a farmer, said that he was entrusted to harvest olives in the yard. He came in, but when he saw these trees, he shouted, "Great, these olive trees are evil!" " "Surprised Lamber figure Joe retorted," impossible, and then climb the tree to see. Using this gap, Boccaccio held Fiya motor tightly in his arms, and Veron was also embraced by Leonet. At this time, calka's roar came from a distance: "Boccaccio in disguise sneaked into this home!" The three young men quickly hid.

Kalca, who came in, told Rambertuccio, who came down from the tree, that the news was overheard from the students' conversation, so it can't be wrong. They acted as watchmen, just around the house. At this time, a stranger was pulled in, and everyone thought he was Boccaccio, so they began to beat him again. However, Lamber Tujo told everyone that he had come to deliver Fiomada's alimony, and everyone was embarrassed to apologize to him.

The man said that he would take Fiya Motor away today, and the sedan chair was waiting outside. Fiamma was afraid and sad, but when she heard Boccaccio's voice coming from her hiding place, she pulled herself together and followed the crowd to the sedan chair. Then Boccaccio and others rushed out disguised as demons and shouted "We are demons", scaring away the people in the sedan chair.

Act III Florence Grand Palace

Mr. and Mrs. Rambotuccio were summoned to court, and they were surprised to learn that Fiammada was the illegitimate daughter of the Grand Duke. Bi Yiduo knew about Boccaccio's love affair with Fiammada for a long time, so he specially asked Boccaccio to write a script to celebrate their wedding. On the other hand, Boccaccio wrote a joke about how he molested Isabella, Kupacchi's wife, and how he fooled Kupacchi, and hinted that Fiomada fell in love with Boccaccio. Hearing this, Biya said to Boccaccio, "I am not interested in marrying the daughter of the Grand Duke now." Then he turned and left.

At this moment, Fiamma appeared, saw Boccaccio and said, "Are you Boccaccio who wrote those indecent novels?" He quickly swore to her: "The content of novels in the future depends only on imagination, not on personal experience." Fiammada said happily that this was good and promised to plead with her father. At this time, they sang a duet of love, "There are so many beautiful women in Florence", and she left first after singing.

Then Lamber Tuqiao and others came out to condemn Boccaccio with one voice, but the novelist was not to be outdone, and in turn laughed at them as hypocrites. At this time, Prince Pido appeared with Fiomada and announced to everyone: "I have decided to promote the marriage in your!" Boccaccio was appointed as a professor of university literature. The people at the wedding banquet ended the comedy with chorus praise and humor. "
