The Bargain and the Butterfly
Ghost Road Company
( 03/26/2013 - 04/07/2013 )
Running Time: 100 minutes
The Bargain and the Butterfly, inspired by Nathaniel Hawthornes short story, The Artist of the Beautiful, is a beautifully haunting new play, which explores the delicate intersection of genius and madness. In a world of shredded books and ticking time pieces, Annie, the brilliant, yet tense progeny of a scientist and a watchmaker, has one desire: restore the soul of her twin brother Owen who has been in a state of coma since birth. With blueprints for a synthetic soul in hand, she turns to a local glassblower to execute the central, delicate piece required for her design to function. However, progress falters as she confides in her new companion, and Annie begins to wonder if time may be running out.
