After angering Zeus, the Fates are banished to a modern office building in the mortal world to continue their mundane work of spinning, measuring and snipping the strings of life for every human on Earth, while hidden among the very mortals whose destinies they weave into one giant, glorious tapestry.
Atropos, the inflexible, workaholic goddess destined to cut the threads of life at the appointed time, gets tangled up with a security guard in the basement of their building. One mistake leads to another - a lost pair of scissors, a kiss, a stolen string - and soon she is breaking her own rules to offer Forever to an ordinary man. But this choice disrupts the natural order 鈥 will the tapestry of the universe hold? Find out and fall for this uplifting, new musical about Fate and Love in the modern city.

A woman arrives in a rural village in pre-industrial England. Her desire is to sew and learn from their simple way of life. A strung-together disconcerting series of scenes reveal there is more to patching up the past than quilting and community. Penning anything but a conventional historical drama, playwright E. V. Crowe explores the effect of technology on relationships and time and questions our nostalgia for the pre-industrial past.
