If Tim Burton met Stephen Sondheim in the KitKat Club… and they were a woman… This twisted one-woman musical is an electric exploration of the life of the artist. As Amelia's prime source of inspiration, her charismatic alter-ego, The Master, gradually becomes her sadistic captor, we travel through the depths of workaholism and the lengths one will go in pursuit of "the dream". A frantic Dad, dodgy agent, oh… and that 65-year-old boyfriend, all come to life through The Master's larger-than-life 'Show Dahling!', while Amelia believes one thing is more important than entertaining an audience: the truth.
