THE ZOO STORY tells the story of Peter—a middle-aged husband enjoying a Sunday afternoon in Central Park. Peter meets Jerry, a self-described transient, and thus begins a comical relationship full of tense and dark undertones. Both hilarious and disturbing, THE ZOO STORY was Edward Albee’s first play. The renowned playwright also penned classics such as “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf”, “The Goat, or Who is Sylvia”, and “Three Tall Women”, winning multiple Tony Awards for his works.

Having been Albee’s first play, THE ZOO STORY is full of the playwright’s innermost thoughts and observations on theatre and about the world in which we are all trapped.

Having been through multiple previews, here’s what audiences members and critics have said of the Lake Erie College production:

"Phenomenal must-see!"

"Highly recommend."

"Mind-stirring."

"Delightful staging & physical performance."

"Costumes are on point."

"The lighting is incredible."

One weekend only—we look forward to seeing you there.
