Napoleon's ChinaNapoleon's China
Synopsis:
Claire is on a cyclone-like campaign against a past that is threatening to sink her. She is a mosaist who is breaking antique china that has been in her family for generations and using it to cover tables, vases, walls--every surface in sight. She is contemplating breaking and using the china Napoleon took to Elba, which belonged to her great, great, great, great, great, great, grandmother--Josephine. Naturally, the proposed destruction of Napoleon's historically significant dinnerware horrifies Shepard, the historian who lives across the hall. Will Claire break the china? Will Shep break Claire's heart? A play about history, the way we hide it and hide from it, and the way we carry it.
