Heautontimorumenos; the Self-Tormentor

by Terence

Terence's six plays are comedies written while he was a slave to a Roman senator. In this one, a severe father compels his son Clinia, in love with Antiphila, to go abroad to the wars; and repenting of what has been done, torments himself in mind. - Summary by ToddHW Cast list: Chremes, an old gentleman, living in the country: Adrian Stephens Menedemus, an old gentleman, his neighbor: ToddHW Clinia, son of Menedemus: alanmapstone Clitipho, son of Chremes: Tomas Peter Dromo, servant of Clinia: Nemo Syrus, servant of Clitipho: Larry Wilson Sostrata, wife of Chremes: Eva Davis Antiphila, a young woman beloved by Clinia: TJ Burns Bacchis, a Courtesan, the mistress of Clitipho: Sonia The Nurse of Antiphila: B L Newman Phrygia, maid-servant to Bacchis: Leanne Yau Stage Directions: MichaelMaggs Edited by: ToddHW
