In Act I, the story unfolds to the rhythm of the seasons, beginning at a Garden Party attended by Tasha, a fiction writer, and Andre, a theologian. Love at first sight, portents of eternity, a delirious dance—it is the the thrill of the encounter, their first spring. Over a long summer their love unfolds—months that feel like years, hours that feel like instants.
