Beauty never showed up. After centuries under the curse, the Beast and his remaining magical servant (a hopelessly optimistic lamp) move into a shabby Chicago apartment, hoping for a lower cost of living and better luck with girls. In the threatening, impossible, completely ordinary world of paying rent and taking public transportation, is a happy ending even possible? A romantic tragicomedy about facing the witch in your head, and finding the wish in your heart.
Only — Female, intermediate age, spry. A lamp.
The Beast — Male, intermediate age. A beast, you know?
The Witch — Female, older, smooth motherly air.
Aiofe — Female, mid-twenties.
The living room of a small, shabby apartment.
Nowhere else.
“…An offbeat, mature riff on the classic ‘Beauty and the Beast’… Reina Hardy’s updating of the fairy tale is a charming and thought-provoking success.”
—DC Theatre Scene
“Hardy has a flair for off-key insights… funky, poetic… the romantic Glassheart certainly has music in its voice.”
—The Washington Post
“Reina Hardy’s eerie, melancholy Glassheart sets itself apart…more than just a love story… seductive and dangerous.”
—The Washingtonian
