Hörbuch: Miles Gloriosus; The Braggart Captain

Pleusicles loves Philocomasium, but she is kidnapped by Pyrgopolinices. Palaestrio, faithful servant to Pleusicles, witnesses this and goes to tell his master, but is captured by Pirates and ends up a servant to Pyrgopolinices as well. Palaestrio still gets word to Pleusicles, who arrives on scene. Palaestrio then invents a complex and daring plan involving mistresses, supposed twin sisters, disguises, family friends in the right places, and a monkey to try to escape Pyrgopolinices and reunite Pleusicles and Philocomasium. (A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum is based on this and two other Plautus plays.) - Summary by ToddHW Cast list: Pyrgopolinices, the Braggart Captain: [Son of the Exiles](https://librivox.org/reader/8879) Artotrogus, a Parasite: [Alan Mapstone](https://librivox.org/reader/7170) Periplecomenus, an old gentleman, the friend of Pleusicles: [ToddHW](https://librivox.org/reader/6754) Pleusicles, a young Athenian: [Adrian Stephens](https://librivox.org/reader/13577) Palaestrio, servant of Pyrgopolinices: [VocalPenguin](https://librivox.org/reader/14768) Sceledrus, another servant of Pyrgopolinices: [Mike Manolakes](https://librivox.org/reader/11484) Lucrio, a lad, an under-servant of Pyrgopolinices: [WendyKatzHiller](https://librivox.org/reader/15373) Cario, cook to Periplecomenus: [Andrew Gaunce](https://librivox.org/reader/14540) A Boy and A Servant: [Sandra Schmit](https://librivox.org/reader/10087) Philocomasium, the mistress of Pyrgopolinices: [Matea Bracic](https://librivox.org/reader/13717) Acroteleutium, a Courtesan: [Sonia](https://librivox.org/reader/10179) Milphidippa, her maid: [Jenn Broda](https://librivox.org/reader/13140) Stage Directions: [Jim Locke](https://librivox.org/reader/10801) Editing: [ToddHW](https://librivox.org/reader/6754)
