The play uses the power of the human imagination to explore the internal complexities of life as a disabled person. The Maiden, who finds solace away from her physical limits by escaping to a bygone age, entrusts all of her deepest frustrations to The Siren, who uses her vocal prowess to keep The Maiden entertained and a local farmer enamored. As tensions rise, The Maiden must decide if this eternal balancing act is worth the aggravation.
