“What would be the use of knowing things if they don’t serve you?”
Mae lives on a farm in feverish poverty with her not-brother Llyod. Mae knows she deserves a better life. Mae knows she can have one. And in an effort to excavate herself from this dreary existence, Mae is going to school and Mae is learning things!
But Llyod doesn’t like that. Llyod is simple. He’d much rather continue living in the pig pen instead. However, when he falls sick, and a keen Mae enlists the help of neighbour Henry – a darkly comic love/hate triangle quickly ensues. Frustrated and desperate, Mae realizes that in order to change her ill-fate, she must escape the two men who depend upon her. But is she already stuck?
Written by the greatest playwright you’ve never heard of, María Irene Fornés, winner of 9 Obie awards and a source of inspiration for Caryol Churchill, Tony Kushner and Sam Shepard. This is a writer who begins with the invention of a spirit.
