By Ruby Thomas, Directed by Patrick Jordan. Enter the tumultuous world of Sam and his bewildered family, where understanding is as rare as a glimpse of clarity in their own lives. As they find themselves ensnared within the confines of an inpatient clinic, embarking on a journey of family therapy, the stakes couldn’t be higher. The Animal Kingdom, directed by barebones productions Artistic Director Patrick Jordan, is more than just a play—it’s a raw, unfiltered exploration of human relationships laid bare on stage. With a razor-sharp blend of wit and compassion, this production delves deep into the intricate layers of group therapy, unraveling the tangled web of emotions and secrets that bind them. Brace yourself for a riveting theatrical experience that will challenge your perceptions and leave you questioning the true nature of family dynamics.
