Did you know theres a mysterious 500,000,000-year-old being who can miraculously cure peopleeven entire planetsof their deepest pain? But who or what is this enigma? The Mystery of Claywoman, written by and starring the handsome model/actor/singer Michael Cavadias (Wonder Boys, Rock Star), attempts to get to the bottom of it, sort of.
