For the first time in one volume comes "The David Ives Trilogy." David Ives's show-stopping series of rediscovered masterpieces of French comedy, all three commissioned by the Shakespeare Theatre Company. "The Heir Apparent," "The Liar," and "The Metromaniacs" all together span nearly a century of French comedy from 1643 to 1738, all reinvigorated through Ives's inimitable rhymed-verse couplets,ingeniously witty wordplay,and diabolically cleaver dramaturgy.
