The Raft: A Play about the Tragic Life of Théodore Géricault

This is the true story of the tragic and twisted life of Théodore Géricault. While immersed in an illicit affair with his Aunt, the Romantic French artist at last finds a topic to match his terrifying darkness. He becomes obsessed with it to the point of madness, whereupon he shaves his head, locks himself in his studio, and drags cadavers from the morgue to feel, taste, touch, and paint - making love to death itself.
