On the other side of ordinary and somewhere to the left of normal there may or may not be a man with a tree growing out of his head, a donkey, a glass apple, some mad spirit fairies, and some pleasurable liaisons.

Irrepressible storytellers Sarah Liisa Wilkinson, Lucy Lill, and Henry Everett bring us a night of weird sh*t and good vibes.

Remember - what happens in the woods, stays in the woods.
