By Anton Piatigorsky

"Every new play should have a first production as wonderful as the one that Crow's Theatre has given Eternal Hydra."
Richard Ouzounian, Toronto Star

"Powerful characters propel clever literary detective story... a Stoppard-like display of intellectual drama... Piatigorsky makes the greatness of Carbuncle's fictional fiction wholly believable"
Kate Taylor, The Globe & Mail

BEST NEW PLAY
OUTSTANDING PRODUCTION
OUTSTANDING DIRECTION
OUTSTANDING LIGHTING DESIGN

Obsession, identity politics and the myth of genius all come to play in this post-modern look at the making of a modernist masterpiece. The play is set in motion by the discovery of a long-lost novel, whose pages spark an academic controversy that reaches as far back as the American Civil War and irrevocably entwines all those who come in contact with it.
