Don Procopio

About the show

Miserly Don Andronico wants his niece Bettina to marry the wealthy miser Don Procopio, fearing a young husband would spend her money. Bettina loves Colonel Odoardo and, with help from her aunt and brother Ernesto, makes herself seem so greedy that Procopio becomes afraid of the marriage. When Bettina insists he abandon the contract, Procopio flees, and Andronico agrees to the young couple’s marriage.
