Six young New Yorkers travel up to a farmhouse in the Fingerlakes, determined to escape the drama of the Christmas holidays. As they find themselves snowed in, however, they encounter more drama - and sometimes more comedy - than they ever bargained for.
First produced at the WPA Theatre in New York, NY.
Butterfield's first career was as an actress, with an emphasis on Shakespeare and the classics. She performed in New York and regional theatre, but soon decided she wanted to try her hand at writing plays. Her first play, "Joined at the Head," was a hit at the Manhattan Theatre Club. Eventually, events led her writing for film and TV in Los Angeles. ("The Ghost Whisperer," "FAME LA," "Party of Five." ) Two years ago as a result of an inspiring trip to France, she wrote her first novel, "The Serpent and the Rose." Her second novel, "Manhattan Triptych," is contemporary fiction.
