ABOUT THE SHOW:
Rat Academy follows Fingers, a curmudgeonly street rat with a heart of gold, who is completely alone. Or so he thinks, until he discovers Shrimp, an escaped happy- go-lucky lab rat. Eager to preserve his legacy, Fingers creates the Rat Academy to train Shrimp in the ways of the cold, hard street rat. Their alleys are far from predictable, and as the unlikely duo tries to exist in a world that hates them, they learn that survival is nothing without love.
RUN TIME: 60 mins, no intermission. Due to the nature of the show’s audience interaction, some parts of the show are improvised within time limits.
