Synopsis

Winner of the 1971 Critics Award and Obie Award as best American play, this brilliantly wacky comedy examines the zany but desperately sad attempt of a middle aged zoo attendant to break into the “big time” as a serious song writer. John Guare mixes hilarity and tragedy to achieve a touching and poignant story not to be forgotten. Adult entertainment.
