The Twine, Indie Theatre Now

The Twine explores the nature of memory, the subconscious mind, loss, and how we perceive and experience love.  A young woman is stumbling through a labyrinth in an attempt to kill the Minotaur.  She encounters various creatures from Greek mythology.  Her only companion is a mute, stoic woman carrying a ball of twine.
