Dear Little Butterface, or the Uncommon Hoor

by Duncan Pflaster

A Moliere pastiche in rhyming couplets, the play is about Butterface, ugly ladies-maid to the beautiful but heartless Lady Margerina in imaginary 17th Century France. When both are courted by Count Oleo, one for her money and one for her virginity, a masked ball thrown by Countess Parquet (so that the charming Viscount Toastpoint may meet the lady he loves from afar) reveals everyone's secrets.
