A tragicomic, modern-day No Exit, plumbing a darker dimension of The Catcher in the Rye. Three obsessive super-fans, with definitively shady pasts, have taken up residence in J.D. Salinger's private writing bunker. Unbeknownst to the reclusive author, their mission to get Salinger to publish once more spirals into a fevered bonfire of longing and delusion.

George & Co is a Philadelphia-based theater company led by writer/director Anisa George. It creates madcap and messy, ensemble-created, original works, and has been nominated for "Best Ensemble" at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and named "Pick of the Philadelphia International Festival of Arts" by The Philadelphia Inquirer.
