Vortex du Plaisir
Gordon Dahlquist
The Grand Tarot
by Charles Ludlam
Synopsis
The master of The Ridiculous essays mysticism and sublimity in a moving, unparalleled epic play, with characters based on the Tarot deck, including Death, the Fool, the Emperor, the Empress, the High Priestess, and the Hanged Man.
Classical allusions, movie references, high and low comedy, and sublime poetry mingle in this experimental burlesque, with scenes originally designed to be played in a different order at each performance.
