Ring Round The Moon

20, 23-27 Nov 1993

The setting is the winter garden of a French country house where a ball is to be staged; and, a female innocent is thrust into a society of wealthy worldlings.

In this case she is Isabelle, an impoverished dancer, who arrives at the invitation of the cynical Hugo, to attract the attention of his twin brother, Frederic, and save him from a potentially disastrous marriage.

What follows is as complex as any Restoration comedy but one that builds leads to a harmonious conclusion symbolised by glittering fireworks.
