MEASURE FOR PLEASURE
by David Grimm
Directed by Christopher Zinovitch
October 21 – November 14, 2009
Lady Vanity loves Sir Lustforth…who loves Hermione Goode…who loves Captain Dick Dashwood…who loves…well, just about everyone (male and female) before the intermission. Meanwhile, Will Blunt is in love with Molly, a young transvestite prostitute. But Blunt doesn't count on his boyfriend falling in love with Dashwood as well…
A deliciously naughty Restoration-romp-meets-modern-sex-farce, MEASURE FOR PLEASURE chases rakes, romantics, and transvestite tarts through mistaken identities, duels, and double-dealings galore on their way to learning that, whatever else it may be, love is rarely pure and never simple.
