第一幕
二戰將近,德國,一間小酒店裡,主持人歡迎我們的來臨。("Wilkommen")美國作家克里夫來到,發覺艾朗斯介紹的酒店差強人意,地主茀蘿蓮要他別對此要求太高。("So What?")克里夫無奈接受,在找尋靈感的時候他遇到吧女莎莉,她的表演極為精采。("Don't Tell Mama")二人一拍即合,("Telephone Song")莎莉更搬到了克里夫的房間。("Perfectly Marvelous")二人被主持人介紹兩個女人,帶出一段匪而所思的故事。("Two Ladies")茀蘿蓮被猶太水果商赫爾追求,("It Couldn't Please Me More")然後主持人和侍應們唱出一段對祖國的詩歌。("Tomorrow Belongs to Me")
此時克里夫被莎莉影響,開始走上歪路,同意犯法,對他而言這就像發夢。("Why Should I Wake Up?")主持人出現,向所有人說著錢的可愛之處。("The Money Song")赫爾和茀蘿蓮結婚,看來好像有些轉機。("Married")可是艾朗斯卻認為這不是一個好結果,他一直在留意外面的動靜。("Meeskite")
第二幕
(Entr'acte")
主持人又出現,在酒店裡和一個女人共舞,並指出金玉其外敗絮其中的道理。(If You Could See Her")果然艾朗斯的預感中了,茀蘿蓮把婚禮得到的禮物都退回並不結婚了,因為她知道和一猶太人一起會使她生意難做。("What Would You Do?")克里夫也開始害怕納粹德軍,並和艾朗斯鬧翻。他要莎莉和他一起離開去美國,可莎莉已經在酒店裡不能自拔,於是決意把二人的孩子打掉。("Cabaret")落寞的克里夫一人在回程火車上沉思,並開始借此經驗寫書。主持人出現,把兩個空間連接,酒店的荒唐氣氛提示了我們:煩惱還陸續有來。("Finale")
London Assurance [Performance] Douban
genre: theater playwright: Dion Boucicault
director: 未知 / Ronald Eyre actor: Charlotte Cushman / Donald Sinden / Roger Rees / Judi Dench / Dinsdale Landen
Act 1
Charles and Dazzle arrive back at Sir Harcourt's London home after a night on the town, and manage to avoid Sir Harcourt with Cool's help—Sir Harcourt still believes Charles is a clean-living innocent. Max arrives to make the final arrangements for Sir Harcourt's marriage to Max's niece Grace—by arrangement, Sir Harcourt has financially helped Max in return for making Grace's inheritance contingent on her marrying Sir Harcourt (if she does not, it will pass to Charles). Sir Harcourt leaves and Dazzle bumps into Max, gaining himself an invitation to Oak Hall, Max's country house—a trip on which Charles will accompany him.
[edit]Act 2
At Oak Hall, Grace explains to her maid Pert her acceptance of marriage to the aged Sir Harcourt and her view of love as an "epidemic madness". Charles and Dazzle arrive, and the former (not knowing of his father's marriage plans) immediately starts courting Grace. When his father arrives, Charles pretends, in the face of all evidence, that he is a man called Augustus Hamilton who merely bears a remarkable likeness to Charles and convinces his father for a time.
[edit]Act 3
Lady Gay Spanker and her husband "Dolly" arrive, and Sir Harcourt immediately falls in love with the former. Grace begins to fall in love with Charles/Augustus in spite of herself. When Lady Gay interrupts their courtship, Charles easily persuades the lady to distract Sir Harcourt from marriage to Grace by apparently accepting his affections.
[edit]Act 4
Charles leaves as 'Augustus', returning as Charles to tell Grace that 'Augustus' has been killed, to see if she really loves him, whilst Lady Gay and Sir Harcourt plan to elope together.
[edit]Act 5
The elopement is frustrated by Max, Dolly and the local lawyer Meddle. Dolly challenges Sir Harcourt to a duel. Sir Harcourt realises he has been duped and resolves to release Grace from their marriage contract.
[edit]Act 6
Max prevents the duel and Grace insists on going through with the marriage to Sir Harcourt, as a ruse to force Charles's hand. Charles's creditors catch up with him. Dolly forgives Gay and Sir Harcourt finds out his son's true nature as well as acceding to Charles's marriage to Grace.

Ghosts (1987) [TV] Douban
Ghosts
Helen Alving is about to dedicate an orphanage she has built in the memory of her dead husband, Captain Alving. She reveals to her spiritual advisor, Pastor Manders, that she has hidden the evils of her marriage, and has built the orphanage to deplete her husband's wealth so that their son, Oswald, might not inherit anything from him. Pastor Manders had previously advised her to return to her husband despite his philandering, and she followed his advice in the belief that her love for her husband would eventually reform him. However her husband's philandering continued until his death, and Mrs. Alving was unable to leave him prior to his death for fear of being shunned by the community. During the action of the play she discovers that her son Oswald (whom she had sent away so that he would not be corrupted by his father) is suffering from inherited syphilis, and (worse) has fallen in love with Regina Engstrand, Mrs. Alving's maid, who is revealed to be an illegitimate daughter of Captain Alving, and thereby Oswald's own half-sister.
