Overview

Accumulating money through usury and self-denial is Harpagon's passion and ostentatiously displayed purpose in life. He loves money more than his good name, honor, and dignity. His wealth is more important to him than his own children. He plans to marry his daughter Eliza off without a dowry to an aging rich man, his son Cleante to a wealthy widow – and he himself has chosen the beautiful young Mariana as his bride, regardless of the fact that his son is in love with her. And this is only the beginning of the hypocrisy, deceit, and manipulation that develops in his family and among his servants under the influence of Harpagon's miserliness...

Siegfeld Institute of Music Junior High. An educational institution established for the purpose of training Rohedelstein, the future candidates for the roles of Edels. Two transfer students from Germany are due to enrol in the Junior High. One is Stella Takachiho, whose heritage is descended from Siegfeld's own prestigious family.

Crimes Against Nature

Jan 1, 1979

Described in the 70’s as "A Chorus Line for gay people," Crimes Against Nature remains vital today as a communal disclosure of roles that gay people adopt in order to survive in a world that devalues homosexual feelings. It features individual actors delivering revealing monologues, during which the other members of the collective play background roles (parents, schoolmates, etc.). One by one, the actors detail the ways in which they have buried their true selves in order to survive and be accepted in the world: repression, drug use, shyness, being agreeable, putting experiences into "little boxes," acting "butch," and so on.
