一齣讓人震撼又感動的戲！
王安祈、蔡欣欣、紀蔚然、卓明、萬芳、鴻鴻等名家讚賞推薦
聯合報評選2009年十大「錯過可惜」表演節目

兩代之間五款深情，大膽前衛卻又通俗動人；

顛鸞倒鳳、笑淚交織，無論你愛的是什麼性別，都要為之揪心動容！

語不驚人死不休的明末清初前衛怪才李漁，三百五十年前寫了部奇觀著作；

編導周慧玲巧編妙排，顛鸞倒鳳性別反串，延伸演繹這一段奇情真愛的十七世紀同志之戀。看似秀才追名士，也像才子戀佳人，母子是父子，姊弟偽夫妻。劇中人雖僅歷二十餘載歲月，周慧玲卻將時代場景跳格於民國元年「南風」盛行的閩中，及保守壓抑的五O年代台灣；在跨時代、跨地域的特殊氛圍中，陳述這跨越性別的戀人之愛、超越血緣的天倫之情。

劇情簡介

1912（民國元年）至1915，南風盛行的閩中

「南風」（男風）盛行的閩中地區，秀才名士許季芳育有一子，妻則因產澇亡故。季芳後與美少男尤瑞郎相戀，尤父要求重金下聘，以解家困。季芳於是變賣家產，聘娶瑞郎回家，並共盡孝道，奉養尤父終老。瑞郎感念季芳情義，自宮以表堅貞，兩人誓守終生。好景不常，正當許尤沈浸在愛情之際，季芳舊愛--同時也曾追求瑞郎的南風者陳大龍，因妒構陷季芳「私養閹童、擅立內監，圖謀不軌」。季芳被拘捕至法庭公審，法官忌南風，反欲酷刑罰瑞郎，眾南風者圍觀，爭睹瑞郎美色。季芳勇救瑞郎，卻經不起棒刑而死，臨終向瑞郎託孤，並囑遷走他鄉，遠離南風者。

1959至1964，保守壓抑的台灣

改名瑞娘的瑞郎，與喜著男裝的表姊肖江，如父如母合力撫養季芳遺孤承先長大成人。瑞娘為避免悲劇重演，極力防止承先與男性友人交往，甚至效法孟母三遷。但承先終究愛上昔日仇人陳大龍的侄子，幾番轉折，瑞娘終於接受這個事實，認可了這第二代的戀情，而承先也終於清楚了母親隱藏多年的身世。瑞娘亦母亦父，獨立扶養承先為人中龍鳳，經校長薦舉，瑞娘獲頒模範母親。
