 ''The Mandrake'' (Italian: ''La Mandragola'') is a satirical play by Italian Renaissance philosopher Niccolò Machiavelli. Although the five-act comedy was published in 1524 and first performed in the carnival season of 1526, Machiavelli likely wrote The Mandrake in 1518 as a distraction from his bitterness at having been excluded from the diplomatic and political life of Florence following the 1512 reversion to Medici rule. Both contemporary and modern scholars read the play as an overt critique of the House of Medici; however, Machiavelli set the action in 1504 during the period of The Florentine Republic in order to express his frustrations without fear of censure from patrons already ill-disposed towards him and his writing.
 An adaptation by [[Athol Fugard]] and the [[Serpent Players]] is entitled ''[[The Cure]]''.
