Synopsis: | The play is a penetrating study of sexual jealousy. Its protagonist is a young man whose inability to calm his suspicions about his wife's fidelity makes him force her to betray him-she must do so in front of him, and with the whole village. The play is crammed with caricature, mockery, masquerade and betrayal. It is also a psychological drama of unusual depth: a tragicomedy of delusional jealousy and a piercing look at love and power | |||||
