Synopsis:
the characters in Orphanage of the Animals are childhoods, childhoods put out with the curbside recycling. they are orphans in their own homes. Wolf eats tEddies, cows, dogs and little children. Crow knows the world's fucked. Nikayla uses her tiger silk nipples to cadge ciggies. Dog bitey biteys hisself worthless. Survivors at any cost, the Orphans work the audience for love and attention. It's a very, very black comedy.
