Notes from the Bottletree
May 22, 2004
Danger, art, beauty and a haunted past drive this provocative new play set in “intown” Atlanta. This modern lyrical tale exposes a passionate young photographer, Jules, as she searches for clarity in both her life and work. Her father has recently passed away, and Red, her estranged brother, is on his way to Atlanta from his most recent prison stay for an unwelcome visit. The brother and sister must face their shared memories and determine what is to be done with the family home. In the midst of this struggle, Jules, with the help of her painter/sculptor boyfriend Che, is putting the finishing touches on a photography exhibit and art installation that could be her big break. Jules is a woman trying to reconcile her past, present and future while coming to terms with her relationships with the three important men in her life.
