A serious play - with caustically comic moments - about the richest family in the world and the terrible secret that tears them apart. It is Aeschylus' world of Agamemnon - forty stories up in modern Manhattan. This play has hatred, dishonor, infidelity, crimes, cheating, lying, deception - and a chorus. A. G. Wonder - while away at war (Corporate War, the Chorus expounds) - commits an act which ultimately was designed to ensure his family's survival for the next millennium, but, which will, in reality, serve to split it asunder forever. A.G. is about to return, and his wife, Tammy, who has taken up with A.G.'s cousin, Aaron, must marshal her forces to preserve her new-found position of power. Their children - Elle, Orrin and the stricken Irene - are cast into the arena to fend for themselves; while Cassy, A.G.'s personal assistant (to whom on one ever listens) holds the ultimate trump card. In the background is the Chorus - three young girls - who comment on the why's and wherefore's of what's happening - constantly hinting as to their true identity. In the end, it's up to Elle and to Orrin to decide if, when and how the hatred is to end.
