In pre-Revolutionary France an elegant temptress and her ex-lover conspire to corrupt a recently married woman. When bets are made, intrigue and seductive games follow close behind. This elaborately costumed play brings us through passion, cruelty, innocence and revenge. It’s an eloquent parable of Love vs. Lust.
“…diabolical fun.” – TheatreMania
