    "A Paper Garden: An idiosyncratic and indefatigable account of Empress Josephine’s and André Michaux’s love of botany". A play by Aaron Cromie, Mary Tuomanen and Genevieve Perrier for the APS Museum. At the turn of the 19th Century, an exotic plant sprouts from an unusual box sent across the Atlantic Ocean by famous world explorer, raconteur and botanist André Michaux to Empress Josephine’s French estate. What blooms is a story full of tall tales, love songs, and one unique French garden. A Paper Garden is part of the 2011 Philadelphia Live Arts Festival & Philly Fringe.
