Summary/Abstract |
A drama about the cult of Dionysus, the vine god, which involved orgiastic and frenzied nature rites.
The king of Thebes, Pentheus, imprisons Dionysus when the latter, in disguise, attempts to propagate his cult among the women of Thebes. This thwarting of a God's will leads to catastrophe. The play is a probing into man's psychological makeup and understanding of himself.

Summary/Abstract |
Populated by characters such as Lady Sneerwell, Lady Candour and Sir Backbite, 'The school for Scandal" is still one of the best comedy of manners ever written.

Luigi Pirandello wrote symbolic dramas and satires with radical innovations and departures from conventional theatrical techniques, thereby sparking controversies.
This intellectual comedy is "a drama within a drama", wherein six characters gatecrash a rehearsal, demanding 'lines' for their unfinished stories.
Embodies Pirandello's innovations of theatre by using a stage without sets.
A masterly feat of drama exploring the many facets of reality.
