Play Synopsis: Distraught after the untimely death of his daughter, Abraham Reed sets about capturing her image in clock-work; building a young girl so unquestionably real that even he is unable to fathom her making. On winding her, Abraham realizes he has created something somewhat more than a machine. A beautiful story of love, loss, and hope woven with cap-tivating music.
