The US premiere of a magical and deeply compassionate play about identity and the capacities of the human spirit. At a time when science and religion have conspired to make freak shows shameful, Robert Riley, owner of Riley's Odditorium, struggles to find ways to keep his company afloat. The action revolves around a traveling show that has begun to endure hard times, due to a sudden discovery of conscience on the part of the public. The manager decides to ‘normalize’ his cast, which has serious consequences for some.
