Saskia Lane and Stephanie Fleischmann in collaboration with Julian Crouch, director Melissa Kievman, and designer Lydia Fine, meld concert and theater to tell the story of a humble, hopeful plant in The Sweetest Life, an indie-folk riff on Hans Christian Andersen's little-known tale "The Flax"—a meditation on hope, resilience, and transformation in the face of life's hard knocks.
