Set in fashionable Budapest in February 1912, this amusing play tells the story of a jealous husband’s obsessive love for his beautiful young wife. He imagines every man who comes near her to be a potential Don Juan, and a chance meeting with a childhood boyfriend in a restaurant and the discovery of a letter fan the flames of his suspicion. In a prophetic dream the wife sees the erstwhile suitor in the four guises in which he said he might return to her, thus confirming her husband’s worst fears. The reality proves different from the dream, but the wife profits from both.
