Theater review: 'Scapin' is a delightful contemporary farce

Sometimes the sad sack wins the day. During much of Constellation Theatre Company's delightful "Scapin," the none-too-bright servant Sylvestre (Bradley Foster Smith) exudes wet-noodle dolefulness. Plodding around with a drooping posture and expression of resigned dejection, his hands nearly hidden in his yellow sleeves, he resembles a silent-movie clown -- Buster Keaton on downers.
