This two-act bio dramedy examines the 74- year, conflicted, triumphal, and daring life of Pierre Charles L'Enfant, designer of the District of Columbia, as his genius is almost overshadowed by his complicated, volatile, and tenacious mien. If you love Washington, you will love this play, But the scope of his influence is beyond the District of Columbia. No fewer than 11 other National capitals have heavily borrowed from his design, and the L'Enfant imprint is seen in drawings for at least forty other projectsHis architectural design for the city stands in effect today, making Washington one of the world's most beautiful capital cities. How did he manage to acquire the awe and appreciation of George Washington, Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson, and a whole slew of Founding Fathers, only to lose their trust, confidence, and patience? Was he indeed L'Enfant Terrible? Or just Mr. Hardluck?
