The Restless Muse is coming soon...
|
|
The Restless Muse is a full-length one-woman show featuring the music, poetry, characters and philosophical revelations of Lani Ford. This project is currently in production for performances at The Producer's Club.
|
The Restless Muse loosely tells the story of a white trash girl with big time dreams in the larger scope of how rewarding and challenging it can be to be an ambitious, single woman (especially from the south)--a pioneer. Not for the weak at heart or the small in mind.
|
The recurring character "Marie Antionette" gives the backwards female point of view that confounds the modern woman.
"Yeah, I am married to a lazy, insensitive a**hole, but he pays the bills. That's all I really care about. Some may say it's a form of prostitution, but that's the way it has always been, silly."

The recurring character "Little Lani" charms everyone but her imaginary daddy...
|
"She packed her bags in Texas
and headed out on the road.
She sold her car,
sold everything she owned...
just a dog and a microphone.
She wanted to see the city,
give it that old college try.
She had to give her dreams one chance
before she had to die."
--from the shadow puppet song "The Way The Story Goes" in "The Restless Muse"
