³...A funny, ferocious saber-toothed play you should pounce on² -- Backstage

Synopsis
Sherry Wickman, a young woman who expects the perfect life to fall into
place after earning a degree, instead finds herself underemployed,
overwhelmed and back home in her twin-sized childhood bed.  Her mother won¹t
emerge from the bedroom, her drunken sister¹s taken up residence on the
couch, her boss won¹t leave his gun at home and ... a tiger¹s escaped from
the zoo.
  
Critically acclaimed in it 2010 New York premiere, TIGERS BE STILL is a
quirky, endearing and deliciously dark new comedy.
