A thrilling preview performance of a new play by Clair/Obscur Theatre about the devastating, dashing, and brilliant Lord Byron, performed at his ancestral home.

Claire Clairmont, Byron’s former mistress, has just laid her mother to rest before heading back to Europe. However, a letter with a secret passed to Claire at the funeral has raked up painful memories about their scandalous affair and a nagging conviction that she must uncover the truth.

Resolving she cannot do this alone, Claire co-opts her half sister, Mary Shelley, author of Frankenstein, to help. Are they prepared for what will be unearthed?
