Not your mama's Tennessee Williams. The Gnadiges Fraulein - a once revered performer, has been reduced to battling giant cocaloony birds for discarded fish to keep her residence at a demented boarding house on an eerie and unnatural Florida Key. The odd guests of the boarding house, their desperate landlady, a cruel gossip columnist, and a flock of monstrous birds round out this overlooked, slapstick-tragedy about the perseverance of the artist and the human spirit.
