Synopsis
THE STORY: In 1912, the painter Egon Schiele was accused of raping a twelve-year-old girl.
She refused to testify against him.
All they could prove was that she saw his paintings.
He was convicted and served twenty-eight days for “Corruption of Morals.”
In life, he never painted her.
This play imagines that he had and tells the story from her point of view.
