SUMMARY

Something sinister has taken root. Poison Posies twists the familiar melodies of Percy Grainger’s Lincolnshire Posy and complements them with darker musical influences, creating an unsettling world where a field of seemingly innocuous flowers conceals something far more dangerous beneath the surface. As their poisonous nature is revealed, their influence spreads, infecting everything in their path as the production descends deeper into darkness. Beautiful things can be deadly—and in this garden, you may want to stop and smell the roses at your own risk.
