About This Book
Two masked figures enter an intimate salon during carnival, each dressed as the opposite sex. Through playful banter and a sequence of costume changes behind a screen they alternately conceal and reveal their true bodies, prompting comic misunderstandings about identity, desire, and social performance. The unmasking ends in mutual recognition and a tentative pledge of affection that defies external judgment. The short stage piece treats gender roles and theatrical disguise with farce, witty mimicry, and light erotic tension.
