"Mistero Buffo is Dario Fo's theatrical masterpiece. Borrowing from the tradition of passion plays and techniques of medieval storytellers, Fo creates a populist interpretation of biblical stories, infused with the rhythmic drive of a jazz improvisation, the immediacy of a newspaper headline and the epic scope of a historical novel. Part political slapstick, part theological circus, this "comic mystery play" has been performed by Fo and his wife and creative partner, Franca Rame, throughout the world to an estimated ten million people. Book jacket."--BOOK JACKET.

Antonio, a Fiat factory worker has, by chance and in ignorance, saved the life of its president, Giani Agnelli, who has been badly burned. Antonio covers him with his jacket, puts him in an ambulance and flees in fear of complications. As the scene opens, the disfigured Agnelli cannot talk and so the doctors will reconstruct his face based on a photograph of Antonio found in the jacket. The subsequent series of misunderstandings provides a basis for extended satire and slapstick.
