A beautiful, independent and feisty young woman inherits an inn and is immediately surrounded by fawning men, including a mean-fisted Marquess, a coarse Count and a sex-starved servant. Bored with the attention and yearning for an honest husband, Mirandolina rises to the challenge of persuading a woman-hating wag how to love women – with surprising consequences. This fast-paced Italian farce combines concealed identities, suppressed feelings and virtuous insights into the world of love.
