The season is charted by Theodore’s demise into pathological generosity and the fight that takes place for control of his money. It’s a King Lear story about the children’s fight for control, betraying him and turning on each other. But we will have so many ideas to explore throughout the season: it’s a Cain and Abel story between the two eldest brothers. A Procrustean story of a system trying to drug Cordelia into conforming to academic norms. It’s an Aphrodite story in Aurelius’ finding his identity between femininity and masculinity.
