Written by Rosa Thomas

Produced by Kacie Koen

Stage Managed by Ally Stancavage

Technical Directed by Sydney Brice

The Reilly family have inherited a sinking Baroque manor. The bog beneath the house’s foundation swallows an inch every year. Archaeologists invade their land, convinced of ancient bodies sacrificed beneath the floorboards. The Council harasses their phone lines, bemoaning the family’s lack of care for their crumbling estate. Meanwhile, the rambunctious Reilly children run amok: drawing obscenities on the damask wallpaper, defecating on marble busts of white-wigged landlords, and sticking chewing gum on the Italian frescos. They are sole inheritors of centuries' pomp and tradition, and they don’t give two slimy shites. As the economic boom grips Ireland, the children discover a full-sized Tiger in the manor’s wine cellar. Tiger likes the damp and the dark. Tiger likes tacky opulence. Tiger is quite surprised they don’t know his name. What happens when they let Tiger loose?

This production runs approximately 90 minutes with no intermission.

Content Advisory: This production contains clear depictions of eating disorders, themes of xenophobia and colonization, and consistently crude language. Please be advised.

• Transportation/Parking: You may enter campus through the main gate at 117th Street and Broadway, on the west side of the street. The closest train stop is 116th on the 1; M4, M104, and M60 buses also stop near campus. On-street parking is not a reliable option, but there is a paid garage at 645 W 120th Street, a 5-minute walk from the main gate.
• The Diana Center is on Barnard's Campus near 118th Street and Broadway. The building looks modern with large glass windows and an orange-ish exterior. The entrance is under the scaffolding on the right side. Once you get to the building, the GMT Lobby is on Lower Level 2 (LL2), two floors down from the lobby. There is some seating, bathrooms, and a water fountain in the lobby of the theater.
