Written by Loyno TAD Alum Emma Schillage (19), CRITTERS opens a small patch of forest, a group of mammals is busy preparing for an Actual Birthday Party when Fawn has an Odd Feeling and announces to the rest of the critters that The World As We Know It is coming to an end. Most brush off her warning, but unease begins to spread. Days later, fear takes hold when several animals make a startling decision: they plan to Become Human.

A camera breaks and four friends conjure spirits (both spectral and alcoholic) as they unravel four interwoven narratives spanning seven centuries: a warped fairy tale about two sisters and a treehouse astronomer; a retelling of Edgar Allan Poe’s The Fall of the House of Usher; a purgatorial intermezzo about Scheherazade and the ghost of Thelonious Monk; and a contemporary fable about a subway murder.
