Possessed archiveA Gothic musical about the scandalous relationship between artist Rossetti and his most celebrated muse Jane Burden. The old adage, 'art imitates life' is turned on its head when a commissioned series of stained glass windows seems to presage Dante Gabriel Rossetti's spiral into despair. A tale as rich and decadent as it is unnerving, Possessed follows prominent artists of the Pre-Raphaelite brotherhood and their muses, as inspiration turns into jealousy and scandal barely suppressed in an opium saturated Victorian England.
