*The lives of two American Marines and an Iraqi translator are forever
changed by an encounter with a quick-witted tiger who haunts the streets of
war-torn Baghdad.  Attempting to find meaning, forgiveness and redemption
amidst the city's ruins, Rajiv Joseph's groundbreaking new American play
explores both the power and the perils of human nature.  *

afterlife itself.*" -(NY Times)
