Butterfly by Ian Rowlands |
First presented in 2006 by Theatr y Byd |
cast size:3
synopsis: BUTTERFLY is a play about art and life, and their appropriation by the unscrupulous; a reflection of society’s increasing immunity to pure emotion, instead seeking personal satisfaction through retaliation and acquisition. A pitch-black comedy featuring a cast of three, the play introduces an established art critic and collector who is no longer moved by beauty. Desperate to feel, to live, he has become a vampire who sucks the souls of young artists from their canvasses, destroying them out of spite. When he is picked up by a young man at a gallery opening, a story of seduction and revenge unfolds. |
