Penny Plain sits in her overstuffed chair, listening to the news of civilization’s inevitable end. When her companion dog Geoffrey leaves to live as a man, the outside chaos invades Penny’s sanctuary. With a cast including survivalists, a serial killer, a cross-dressing banker, talking dogs and mysterious strangers, Penny Plain is a chilling apocalyptic gothic drawing room comedy of ill manners. 

Audience Advisory: Not for children. Children under the age of 14 will not be admitted.
