Amphitryon

I laughed so hard, I fell over backward.- Voltaire
Jupiter, the King of the gods, is in love again, this time with the beautiful and faithful Alcmena, wife of Amphitryon, general of the Thebans. As the victorious general is on his way home from battle, Jupiter disguises himself as Amphitryon in order to win Alcmena’s favors. The blend of high comedy and slapstick antics that follow unlocks a Pandora’s box of ideas about love, marriage, and power.
