Henriette and Clitandre,
are in love, but in order to marry, they must overcome an obstacle;
the attitude of Henriette's mother who wants her to marry Trissotin, a
"scholar" and mediocre poet with big teeth, who has the women of the
family completely in his thrall.These ladies are "learned"; their obsession in life is learning and culture of the most
pretentious kind, and Trissotin is their special protégé and the
fixture of their literary salon.

Writer and performer Eve Ensler
created a one-woman show that she began performing off-off-Broadway in
1996. Her show, THE VAGINA MONOLOGUES, spoke of women’s bodies
covering subjects often considered taboo, risque, and threateningly
empowering. The show was a revelation which would become one of the
most popular theater pieces of its time.

Trapped in a provincial town after
the death of their father, three sisters long for better times and
the excitement of Moscow. The play examines the tiny sorrows and
triumphs that define a life as it follows the Prozorov family, three
sisters and their brother, who are dissatisfied and frustrated with
their present existence.
The play reflects the decline of the privileged class in Russia and
the search for meaning in the modern world.

Shakespeare’s final masterpiece, The Tempest is a
tragi-comedy, as rich in dreamlike strangeness and mysticism as it
is in wit. Sorcerer Prospero and his daughter Miranda have been
stranded for 12 years on an enchanted island with Prospero’s
reluctant servant, the spirit Ariel, and the monstrous Caliban. When
Prospero's power forces a ship carrying his enemies to founder on
the shore, this peerless story of vengeance and magic takes off on a
serpentine path that ends with the poignant triumph of forgiveness.
