Tapping into the imagination of young and old, Still Life with Iris weaves the ageless enchantment of magic into the fabric of a dramatic fantasy. The play's story line is in the tradition of
Alice
in Wonderland and The Wizard of Oz yet remains fresh and inventive chronicling a young girl's quest to regain her memory, her past and with it her home. With the help of the incredible people she meets along the way, including Annabelle Lee and a young Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Iris' crusade recovers more than her past. She succeeds in finding herself, the power of faith and the courage of persistence.
Still Life with Iris was the first play written for young audiences to receive the
Kennedy
Center
's prestigious "Fund for New American Plays" Award. In recent years university and professional productions of Still Life with Iris have appeared in theatres across the
United States
. Award winning playwright Stephen Dietz’s script is intelligent, clever and thought provoking sure to entertain and engage audiences of all ages.
