Catherine Butterfield

4 Male 3 Female

Winner of the 2004 Kaufman and Hart Award

A suburban "security mom" finds herself irresistibly drawn to her son's tutor - a handsome young man with political leanings far different from her own

Her "awakening" leads to a bizarre series of events that blow the lid off her previously sheltered existence and change the lives of all around her

A dark and zany comedy
