Barnaby

Synopsis:
This is part of the BoCoCa Arts Festival. Barnaby and Finnegan live above an antique shop in a space filled with vintage bicycles, pornographic refrigerator magnets, ashtrays, and Miller High Life. they keep seventeen chickens in their back lot and listen to a lot of NPR. In their post-collegiate, semi-revolting, "hip" life, their daily trials and sexual frustrations manifest themselves as epic tragedy. as Barnaby's sort-of girlfriend aiken ellis tries to convince him to move to Puget Sound with her to harvest potatoes, he hears a robot-god voice demanding that he slaughter all of his beloved back-lot chickens. This play is a dirty, trashy adventure filled with tasteless behavior. It is a filthy, sexy, fun micro-examination on the tiny tragedies of youth.
