Theater: Barbara Wolff Monday Night Reading Series – The Classics Professor, a new play by John Pielmeyer, directed by Clayton Phillips Into Professor Alexander’s class “Comedy in Greek Tragedy“ steps Daemon, a young man who proceeds to turn the good professor’s life upside-down. Alexander, who is translating and directing a college production of The Bacchae suddenly finds that his own life too-closely resembles a play by Euripides, but with decidedly different results. “As Tragedy begins to unwind,” he tells his class, "there comes that delicate point where Farce o’ertakes it.” | |
