$15 in advance, $18 at the doorThe animals at the zoo are very busy; experimenting with meditation, processing their relationships, honing their wilderness survival skills. None of them are talking about the cages. The cages are not important. A three-act meditation on capitalism, the radical left, and the impossible task of imagining ourselves free, Paradise Park Zoo is a truly unique and thought-provoking theatrical experience.
Performances October 24, 30, and November 6 will include talk-backs after the shows featuring panelists from the cast and production team as well as guest panelists including the playwright, Savannah Reich. There will be a brief reception after the opening night performance on October 23.
