Ann E. Wrecksick & The Odyssey of the Bulimic Orphans, "a delightful, heartfelt, song and dance journey that takes several orphans on a quest for love, acceptance and the perfect diet," will come to Ars Nova (511 W. 54th St.) for eight performances only from Monday, February 20 through Sunday, March 19th.

Bare actor Scott Allgauer and

Bare), the musical "tells the tale of several husky, un-adoptable orphans and their redheaded ringleader. The orphans are faced with the irrefutable pressure to stay thin...after all, no one wants to adopt a fat kid! Join Ann E. and her friends on this delightful, heartfelt, song and dance journey through a world of debilitating eating disorders, acute cocaine addiction, overt lesbian pedophilia, and taxidermy too!," according to press notes.
The cast features Scott Allgauer, J. Cameron Barnett, Beth Curry, Byron St. Cyr, Joey Dudding, Matthew-Lee Erlbach, Amy Goldberger, Karen Katz, Caroline McMahon, Eddie Pendergraft, and Sandy Rustin.
