Madame Melville explores the poignant relationship between a fifteen-year-old American boy, Carl, and his captivating teacher, Claudie Melville, set against the backdrop of pre-revolutionary Paris in 1966. The play delves into themes of art, music, and the bittersweet realization of life's wonders. In contrast, The General from America offers a deep psychological portrait of Benedict Arnold, highlighting his emotional turmoil and the conflicts between love and loyalty, ultimately leading to a haunting sense of compromise and despair.
