| Danny, a reclusive Brooklyn playwright, awakens one morning from an odd dream where a mysterious woman beckons him into a strange new world. Is Danny's dream an ecstatic vision? Is it a warning of things to come? Or is it merely the result of too many beers the night before? Setting off on a journey from his home in Brooklyn to the island of Manhattan, he encounters a world very different from any he's ever known. Over the course of one long, unpredictable evening he meets a cast of shadowy characters and finds himself entangled in a love triangle with a sultry stripper named Linnea, who he believes is the woman of his dreams. Danny's obsessions grow stronger as he attempts to finish his play and help Linnea, but as the lines between reality and art are blurred, his dreams quickly turn to nightmares. | |||||

Synopsis: | Stavrogin's Confession is, as they say, a mystery wrapped in an enigma. The mystery, central to our understanding of the plot, is whether Stavrogin has actually done the heinous crimes he claims. The enigma, essential to our understanding of the play, is whether Stavrogin is in fact guilty of something more serious. Whatever the content--or veracity--of his confession, Stavrogin's atonement is designed to take in all of the sins of mankind. In his assumption of this Christ-like sentence, Stavrogin's greatest sin may be the sin of hubris. | |||||
