    Cistellaria or The Casket - Titus Maccius Plautus
    May 15 2026
    The casket is a small box with recognition tokens in it so that someone can prove that they are who they claim to be. Which tells you that there will be quite the confusion with people in this play being other than whom they seem to be, are believed to be, or even whom they believe themselves to be. Plus rape, incest, attempted murder by exposure, kidnapping, slavery.... Good thing this all takes place almost 2500 years ago. - Summary by ToddHW Cast list: The God of Help, who speaks the Prologue: ToddHW Demipho, a merchant of Lemnos: Larry Wilson Alcesimarchus, a young man of Sicyon: KeltonLee Lampadiscus, servant of Demipho: Alan Mapstone Phanostrata, wife of Demipho: Sonia Silenium, their daughter, beloved by Alcesimarchus: ShrimpPhish Melaenis, a Procuress: valroth Halisca, her servant: Agnes Robert Behr A Procuress, the mother of Gymnasium: WendyKatzHiller Gymnasium, a Courtesan: Rapunzelina Stage Directions: Inkell Editing: ToddHW
