Young devil, Pug, is desperate to visit earth and corrupt mankind, so Satan places him with a human master for one day. But poor Pug can't cope with the moral cesspool of London life and finds himself made an ass at every turn as he's caught in the middle of a frantic whirl of deceit, corruption and trickery between master Fitzdottrell, conman Meercraft, young gallant Wittipol and Fitzdottrell's stunning wife. Can Pug make it through the day and back to the safety of Hell? 'The Devil Is an Ass' is a Jacobean comedy by Ben Jonson, first performed in 1616 and first published in 1631.
