    The Loathly Lady is an original comic work in three acts, conceived at the cusp between opera and musical theater. The plot is based on Geoffrey Chaucer's The Wife of Bath's Tale (c. 1400), in which a cruel knight must discover what women want most. The Loathly Lady's knight meets a series of opinionated characters in the course of his questing including Sigmund Freud, Jane Austen's Emma, Sheherezade, Virginia Woolf Featuring Julianne Baird, Jeffrey Behrens, Ruth Cunningham, Susan Hellauer, Jacqueline Horner-Kwiatek, Thomas Meglioranza, Drew Minter, Parthenia, and Piffaro.
