This unique and surprisingly funny story follows a foul-mouthed tiger who gets lost in the streets of present-day Baghdad searching for the meaning of life and war. "Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo" is a haunting look at the aftermath of violence and the absurdities of war.
Under the direction of Mark Liermann, the all-student cast includes Eddie Coleman, Anthony Hamilton, Micah Hazel, Aleks Krapivkin, Alex Langmesser, Asia May, Alex Oparka and Blake Price. The production stage manager is Treva Wyman.
