Video: FURSONA NON GRATA By Jeff Goode at First Look Buffalo Theatre Company
April 14th through May 7th.
Fursona non Grata is a new comedy by Jeff Goode. It chronicles the story of Lisa a successful young attorney, who, along with her long-time boyfriend, Dane, is lured home under urgent circumstance. This is Dane's first-time face to face or better "face to fur" meeting with her family. Upon their arrival Dane discovers that during their 3 year relationship Lisa left out one small detail, she is from a family of furriers*! What happens next is a madcap comedy of faux paus, misunderstandings and personal growth.
FURSONA NON GRATA is the first full-length, professionally produced play that examines this intriguing sub-culture phenomenon. First Look Buffalo Theatre Company is proud to produce this World Premiere comedy that focuses on the love of family, and most importantly, acceptance.
You'll laugh, you'll cry, you might even cough up a furball!
