Hourglass

Caroline Game

Hourglass is a time-bending, genre-blending musical spanning three generations of women and beauty standards. When Dawn begins losing her memory, she takes her daughter through moments of her life that she's never shared before; each to do with the tumultuous relationship she had with her mother and the even more fraught one with her body. As her hourglass sand falls, Dawn begins to learn that perhaps the pressure to be beautiful exists in every timeline. Who, then, is the beholder?
