The Squirrels - 2018 - San Diego, CA (Regional) History , Info & More

La Jolla Playhouse
2910 La Jolla Village Dr La Jolla, CA 92037

Winter is on its way, and the squirrels are restless. Mistrust is growing between the rich Gray Squirrels and the outcast Fox Squirrels. When a wily outsider gets in the mix, he ignites an epic animal kingdom soap opera teeming with rebel armies, conspiracy, love and family loyalties. No squirrel will go unharmed in this deliciously demented new comedy.

Tony Award winner Christopher Ashley (Come From Away) directs Tony Award nominee Robert Askins' (Hand to God) ambitious, out-landishly funny (and downright furry) new play.
