LUST

7 F / 10 M

A full-length musical in 2 acts

The set design can be solved with either one permanent set and individual properties or with bigger sets on a revolving stage.

Based on ‘The Country Wife’ by W. Wycherley

LUST tells the story about the womaniser Mr. Horner who is so irresistible that no married man in London invites him in. However, Mr. Horner’s good friend Dr. Quack easily solves this problem by spreading rumours that Mr. Horner is castrated. Effectively this seems to calm the gentlemen and so Mr. Horner is secured free access to visit all the lovely and lonely wives. Especially the wonderful Margery in whose four-poster bed he is eventually found. Though even in this awkward situation the friend Dr. Quack comes to his rescue.

SONGS:
Lust,
The art of deceiving,
Serve the dog right,
I live for love,
A fox on love and wenching,
Somewhere out there,
Ladies of quality,
Husbands beware,
Come tomorrow,
What a handsome little fellow,
Wait and see,
Dear Sir,
Ode to the one I love,
A Little time in the country,
The master class,
Ladies Lament,
One of your,
Vengence,
We thank you.
