The Animals by Craig Baxter
A satirical look at a group of passionate but incompetent animal rights activists who attempt to make a ‘political’ statement through direct action but with tragic consequences.
1998 World Premiere at The Dublin Theatre Festival, then re- toured with Monogamy as part of Double Helix (2002).
