PHEDRA
Jean Racine
The storyline of PHEDRA is a beautifully simple love chain: Theseus loves his wife Phedra, who loves his son Hippolytus, who loves his enemy Aricia, who loves Hippolytus back but can't legitimately have him. No one is happy; no love has divine blessing; even love's young dream is cursed.
