Asthmatic and prolific composer Antonio "The Red Priest" Vivaldi is smothered by the affections and attentions of an adoring soprano and a crusty caregiver in this short but broad comedy sketch. This easy-to-stage skit, with plum roles for two women and one man, is sprinkled with biographical factoids, but is otherwise totally made up. About 1, 600 words. Rated PG-13 for language.
