Summary First staged at the Almeida Theatre in 2011, 'Butterfly Kiss' unfolds the story of Lily Ross's life and crime through oblique, shifting and mesmeric scenes, her interlaced memories revealing the psychosexual tangle of her childhood and the events that led up to her trial. From her jail cell Lily summons up her past, a vivid collage of cross-fades and flashbacks cumulatively revealing aspects of her experience. Her relationships are spikily chronicled in hard-edged scenes, all leading in an impossible multiplicity of ways to the terrible truth of what she has done to her mother.
