Through a westernized contemporary use of bunraku, an ancient form of Japanese puppetry, past and present collide on a snowy Christmas Eve for a troubled family of five. Humorous and heart-wrenching, Paula Vogel's play is a moving and memorable study of an American family careening near the edge of oblivion.
