Maëlle Poésy recently arrived in New York from France to mount her latest play, an autobiographical piece that depicts her tumultuous, on-again-off-again affair with a married photographer, Nick (Linas Phillips). Mona casts Chris (Keith Poulson) as Nick and Thérèse (Esther Garrel) as her fictional version. As rehearsals begin, a love quadrangle emerges: Mona falls for Chris, Chris becomes infatuated with Mona, and Thérèse develops deep feelings for Chris. This tangled roundelay unfolds in five chapters, covering the same events from each of the four character’s perspectives, culminating in a fraught production of the play itself.
