Story
Set in Florence, Italy, in the early 1500s, Machiavelli is a new comedy by Richard Vetere about the great political thinker and his equally clever wife, Marietta. Within a constantly changing world of intrigue, they must use their wits to navigate the outrageous whims and violent behavior of the Medicis [Italy's ruling family], as well as their own daughter's shocking rebellion. Should Machiavelli help his sworn enemy in order to help his own family survive to fight another day... or confront them, and put all their lives in jeopardy?
