In this lush, magical, queer, and feminist take on "Hamlet" in modern-day New York City, we meet Ben Dane. Unable to face alone his mother's ghastly remarriage to his uncle, Ben turns to his dearest friend, Horatio Patel. Loyal to a fault, Horatio is on the first flight to NYC. Meanwhile, Ben's ex-fiancé Lia has been drawn into the fold of three florists who teach her the language of flowers, and whose magical bouquets hold both curses and cures. On one explosive night, these kinetic forces will collide, and the only possible outcome is death.
