is driving me crazy because I know I know it but I just can't make the letters rearrange properly in my head.
See Clue #1.
Clue #2:
The tragic counterpart to Molière, this writer's best-known plays are all named after women in Greek literature or mythology.
Clue #3:
This "renaissance man" is probably best known for his film work, although he never worked for Disney.
Clue #4:

Enhanced Clue #1:
While one of the missing author’s plays was adapted to be an Italian opera, the composer was neither from Italy nor France, but rather from a third European country. The action of the play takes place in yet a fourth European country.
Enhanced Clue #3:
This "renaissance man" is probably best known for his film work, although he never worked for Disney. Unlike Disney, he probably would have voted against Prop 8.
