Hovering at the dawn of electricity,” Dr Givings, a scientist, happily embraces his invention with which he can cure his patients’ (primarily female) “hysteria”. His wife, Mrs. Givings, a new mother, is consistently pulled toward the sounds emanating from the next room. With the innocent aid given to her by the other characters, Mrs. Givings pursues the light that can infuse her marriage with loving intimacy and open the heavens to delight here on earth. The playwright Sara Ruhl enlightens us with her tender, sometimes hilarious contemporary take on a comedy of manners set in the Victorian era.
