Bad to the Bone
Dark comedy turns tables on high school bullies
By Bridgette M. Redman
Some classmates are hard to forget—even decades later. The bullies. The hard girls. The ones who liked to make other people’s lives miserable. However, writers get to grab a chance for revenge—which is what Santa Monica resident Catherine Butterfield thought she was going to get 10 years ago when she started to write “To the Bone.” Her play, which was optioned for Broadway until the pandemic squashed things, will get its world premiere Oct. 1 to Nov. 5 at Open Fist Theatre in Atwater Village. Butterfield moved from a close, very “nice” community in Minnesota to Boston when she was in middle school. As a new girl who showed up in a dirndl with yarn in her hair while all the other girls were wearing fishnet stockings, high heels and Amy Winehouse eye liner, she quickly found out what it was like to be bullied. “I feel like I took a lot of abuse,” Butterfield said. “It may have been just in my eyes because nobody ever gave anybody abuse in Minnesota. I was in shock a lot of the time.” Years later, she took up her pen to get some revenge on the girls who tormented her. She made them in their 40s and life wouldn’t have turned out quite the way they were expecting. “When I first started writing it, I thought, ‘I’m just going to make these girls pay,’” Butterfield said. “I’m going to do a hatchet job on them. It’s my time for revenge. But as always happens when you write characters, you start to fall in love with them. You start to relate to them. You start to wish them the best, even if you didn’t like the original people they were based on. It turned out to be a very different play.” It's set in 2013, 20 years after the Red Sox lost their chance at winning the pennant because a Yankees fan ran out on the field, voiding the game-winning out. And yes, baseball is as much a part of this story as family and genetics. Even though she became sympathetic to her characters, Butterfield said the hardship is still in the play. The girls she based it on lived in an area called the Gulch and she said they were really tough. They were infamous for such things as stealing cars, doing drugs and being promiscuous. It was the latter that fed the playwright’s speculation on how their lives might have turned out. The play deals with the child one of them had when she was 17 who was turned over for adoption. The daughter and mother are about to have their first reunion, much to the surprise of the teenage son who didn’t know he had an older sister. “What you might have expected to be a touching mother-daughter reconciliation doesn’t turn out that way at all,” Butterfield said. “Both of them turned out to have their own agenda, not only the daughter, but the mother.” Her sister, Maureen, played by Amanda Weier, tries to provide some stability for Kelly and her nephew, Sean, played by Jack Sharpe. She acts as a facilitator who tries to smooth things out between mother and daughter as well as protect Sean. The daughter, Geneva, played by Alice Kors, shows up with her roommate, Darcy, played by Kacey Mayeda. Geneva wants Darcy to catch the reunion on film with the plan of making a documentary. Butterfield moved a lot during her childhood years, but she says the years in Boston were quite memorable. Her father ran television stations around the country. One fond memory she has about him being a station manager in Boston was that he had box seats to the Red Sox games and she got to go. Twenty-seven years ago, she moved to Santa Monica which she now calls her home. She has worked with Open Fist before. She and her husband, Ron West, did a series of political shorts in 2017 after the national election. West, has done a lot of work with the theater. When they told her that not only could she direct it, but she could bring the actors who had done readings of the show, Butterfield said it was a no-brainer. Tisha Terrasini Banker and Amanda Weier play hard-girl sisters in the new play, “To the Bone.”
Playwright and director Catherine Butterfield brings to the stage the premiere of a play she wrote in 2013 about the hard girls she grew up with.
“I started thinking, when is this little play going to get its chance?” Butterfield said, adding that she had a few plays that were due for premieres before the pandemic. “They really deserve their shot and they’re not getting it. When (Open Fist) said I can direct it, I thought, that sounds creatively really fun.” Open Fist is also a community she trusts to do the work the way she feels is needed. It was a place where she felt a part of the community and where she knew she would have artistic control over her work. The first half of rehearsals for the show were done over Zoom. Butterfield said that allowed them to really dig deep into the inner lives of the characters, to figure out their backgrounds and the timeline of when things happened. “By the time we finally got on stage, I think everybody was really well grounded,” Butterfield said. A week after the show opened, Butterfield also attended her first high school reunion. Some of her former classmates have already seen the earlier Zoom reading of “To the Bone.” “They recognize themselves and they still love it,” Butterfield said. It’s a love that should protect her from falling victim to any of her classmates who might still be bad to the bone.

Sure-Fire Ways to Enhance the Value of Your Home
As a homeowner, any investment in your home should be one that enhances its overall value. There are many different ways to improve the value of any home. The trick is to choose those features which will bring you the most return on your investment and satisfaction for your everyday living environment. Here are our best suggestions for areas to improve the value of your home.
Landscaping
The curb appeal of your home is in straight connection with the perceived value of the home. It’s important to remember that the value of your home will be determined by the buying market. For this reason, you’ll want to ensure that your home looks amazing. Curb appeal is an area that you simply can’t ignore. The outside of your home is the first glimpse that people get of your house from a listing and when driving up for a showing. You want to impress them at first sight. Investing your money in different landscaping features can provide a great return on your investment. Features can include trees, shrubs, flowers, fountains, fences, benches, ambient lighting, and so forth.
Energy-Efficient Features
Aside from the mortgage payment, one of the most expensive parts of owning a home is paying the electricity bill. This holds especially true in the dead of winter and drought of summer. To help keep energy levels low, there are various energy-efficient features that can be installed throughout your home. Solar panels tend to be some of the first features that most people think of when they hear about cutting energy costs. By producing your own energy, you can avoid the high costs of paying your utility company each month. Heat pumps are another great way to majorly reduce your heating and cooling costs. Even adding energy-efficient kitchen appliances can be a great idea to help lower the electric bill each month.
Replace Old Windows
Older windows in your home can be a big avoidance of potential homebuyers. They know that windows can be somewhat costly to fix and will avoid buying homes that will need a lot of windows replaced. You can fix this problem by installing new windows in your home. These newer windows will be more energy-efficient and make your energy bills much cheaper. According to EnergyStar, the average homeowner can enjoy savings of up to 500 per year in energy costs just by installing new windows. Also, by installing new windows, it can modernize the look of the home which is a big plus for potential buyers.
Convert Extra Space Into Rooms
One of the biggest ways to improve the value of a home is to add another bathroom or bedroom. While not all homeowners have the space to do so, it can be advantageous for those who do. Look for those spare rooms that can be converted. Even an attic space that is tall enough to be converted into a bedroom can drastically improve the value of your home. If you have a lot of open basement space, consider installing a downstairs bathroom and bedroom. The more bedrooms and bathrooms you can install, the higher the value increase for your home.
Update The Kitchen
The two most popular rooms in a home are the bathroom and the kitchen. The kitchen is one that is highly desired to be modernized. This includes new appliances, beautiful countertops, and more modern features. If you’re going to be investing your money in updating any room of your home, you should opt for the kitchen first. This will bring you the biggest return on your investment. Increasing the value of your home can be done through many different methods. The above are just some of the most popular methods that are used by homeowners. It’s always a good idea to consider the return on investment that you’ll get from any home improvement that you intend to do. This will ensure that you get your money back when you go to resell your home in the future.
