The Illusion

Pulitzer Prize-winning Tony Kushner playfully adapted Corneille’s 17th-century L’Illusion Comique into a magical mystery tour of wit and style. This serio-comic fable has it all: passionate lovers, quirky sorcery, juicy language—even a sword fight. What is real and what is art? Come decide for yourself!
