Hag-seed and Nutshell meet My Year of Rest and Relaxation in this darkly funny and hypnotic exploration of a theatre professor at the end of her rope. Miranda is a theatre professor whose life is less than satisfactory. After falling during a performance early in her acting career, she finds herself in constant, seemingly incurable pain and struggles to even sit still. Provided by publisher.
