The fairy Cherestani fall in love with Prince Farruscad in this author's play The Serpent Woman. He also wrote a play in which twins adopted by Smeraldina speak to a talking statue and the title animal courts Barbarina, The Green Bird. Deramo is tricked into reciting a verse over a corpse and becoming the title beast, but is eventually recognized by his wife Angela in his play The King Stag. In another of his works, Truffaldino helps the son of the King of Spades marry Ninetta, who is trapped in the overgrown title object. That play, which also takes some jabs at fellow Venetian Carlo Goldoni, preceded a work about Prince Calaf, who answers three riddles in order to marry the title princess. For 10 points, name this man who drew from commedia dell'arte for his fiabe, the playwright of The Love for Three Oranges and Turandot.
