The Manager walks onstage and declares it is in fact time for a rehearsal-they will be working through the Second Act of a Luigi Pirandello play, Mixing it Up. One, No One and One Hundred Thousand translated into English by William Weaver, 1990, Marsilio ( ISBN 0-94).Six Characters in Search of an Author begins by defying the conventions of theater: when the audience enters, the curtain is raised and the stage is “as it usually is during the day time.” Some of the actors, who themselves play theater Actors, hang out on stage like they might have during their rehearsals.One, None, and a Hundred-Thousand, translated into English by Samuel Putnam, 1933.The Kenyon Review stated that it "reads more like an essay in metaphysics than a plot-driven narrative," noting the "many audience-directed questions poses", emphasizing that "despite beginning from premises which aren't particularly controversial, proceeds to draw out some very questionable conclusions," and assessing the book as enjoyable "precisely to the extent that find themselves agreeing with what Moscarda/Pirandello expounds." Translations into English TIME described it as "ingeniously stat and restat" the idea that "everyone has a multiple personality that if anyone tries to examine deeply his own multiplicity, nonentity, possible unity, he will quickly be called a madman." Vitangelo Moscarda discovers by way of a completely irrelevant question that his wife poses to him that everyone he knows, everyone he has ever met, has constructed a Vitangelo persona in their own imagination and that none of these personas corresponds to the image of Vitangelo that he himself has constructed and believes himself to be.

In an autobiographical letter, published in 1924, the author refers to this work as the ".bitterest of all, profoundly humoristic, about the decomposition of life: It is Pirandello's last novel his son later said that it took "more than 15 years" to write. One, No One and One Hundred Thousand ( Italian: Uno, nessuno e centomila ) is a 1926 novel by the Italian writer Luigi Pirandello.
