The multiple award-winning Antaeus Company (winner of the Los Angeles Drama Critic’s Circle Award for Outstanding Season for 2010) opens its second season of classics with a fully double-cast production of John Marston’s viciously funny, filthy, and surprising masterpiece. The usurped Duke of Genoa takes the disguise of the outrageous Malevole (the titular Malcontent) to spy on the corrupt foibles of the new Duke and his unctuous cronies. Disguises, false deaths, seductions, deceptions, and adulteries all drive the plot of this enormously entertaining play. April 28 thru June 19. The Antaeus Company @ Deaf West Theatre, 5112 Lankershim Blvd, N. Hollywood CA 91601. $15-$34; 818-506-1983 www.Antaeus.org.
