Notes: | Original Playwright - Georges Feydeau; Written in collaboration with Peter Hall; aka "Where There's a Will" | |||||
Synopsis: | Georges Feydeau's elegantly complex play is brought to life in this witty; seamless and acutely funny translation by Peter Hall and Nicki Frei. Feydeau, the supreme master of farce, displays all his dramatic tricks as his characters are pulled back and forth spinning dizzily in a surrealistic climax of complications. | |||||

Notes: | From the novel by Henry James (1881) | |||||
Synopsis: | Henry James's nineteenth century masterpiece is one of the wonders of world literature. Set in London, Rome and Florence, it tells the story of Isabel Archer, a beautiful, young American heiress, who travels to Europe on a voyage of self-discovery. She is accompanied by the delightful Madam Merle who seems to have many friends, but no past. Having turned down an English lord and wealthy American industrialist, Isabel marries Gilbert Osmond, a man of exquisite taste and sensibility, who claims to care nothing for worldly possessions. As Gilbert and Madam Merle reveal their true faces, however, Isabel has to confront her future alone. . . | |||||
