Harlequin Skeleton

Harlequin Skeleton, Pantomimeteatret

A servant is unlikely to win the hand of the daughter of the house, particularly if he has been chased away by a fuming father, Cassander, with a gun in his hand. Therefore, Harlequin has to devise a plan that will enable him to marry his beloved Columbine.

A fake death scene, a cunning agreement with an avaricious doctor and a nerve-wracking disguise act with Harlequin as a lanky skeleton are the solutions that get the better of Cassander and the forever clumsy servant, Pierrot. And finally the curtain can fall on the most beautiful declaration of love, under the protection of none other than a genuine fairy tale fairy.
