Violet insists that Jack explain their affair to Richard, but increasingly-attractive Diana keeps getting in the way. Just as everyone’s exploits get out of control, the memorial service starts and Act One closes.Īct Two begins as the service ends, and people stream out with demeanors and costumes subtly and beautifully transformed. (It takes Richard a while to realize he already had seduced Brigit a couple months earlier-she required an extreme makeover to rebalance.) Meanwhile, Diana discovers the memorial to be a fantastic opportunity to connect with people-at first professionally and then romantically with Jack. Richard and Violet bicker, try to keep emotionally steady, and attempt to deflect each other from romantic exploits with Brigit and Jack. The drama starts as people arrive in the lobby of an upscale hotel for the memorial service, and to everyone’s relief a competent bartender keeps the drinks coming. Tonight fate throws everyone together at the memorial service of a common acquaintance, and facades shatter. And mysterious DIANA can no longer hide her grief behind her smile.
Violet’s dishonesty with her psychoanalyst and lover JACK and Richard’s torrential one-night-stand with lively BRIGIT have blasted everyone into their own emotional crises. RICHARD and VIOLET’s marriage is broken secretly both have sought passion elsewhere, but nobody’s satisfied. The Soulless is a musical drama about love’s torments, the sorrow of loss, and finding joy in the unexpected.
