Where Do We Go From Here

Make way for a menagerie of forest critters as they present a zoological spectacle of climatic proportions. ‘The Real’ Smokey Bear, Hooty the Owl and Bennie Bark Beetle present masterful acts of anthropocene mockery. Humanfolk both young and old, bear your teeth, clap your paws and roll around in the dirt as you objectify and cackle like coyotes at the cute vitriol of your animal friends as they present ‘Where Do We Go From Here’!
