THE CIRCLE OF EYES
Blurb
“The Circle of Eyes” is a heartbreaking, whimsical, futuristic fairytale about a robot with a soul. Willow’s soul was reincarnated from a past life of a little blind girl who dreamed of being a pianist. This is a story about love, the meaning of life, and the importance of art created from real human emotion, rather than from a machine. It is an enchanting musical for all ages, and is dedicated to every child who has ever felt lost, and is searching for a dream to believe in.
