415 Geary St. San Francisco. 1946. A place to call home?  You'll find out from the best seats in the Geary theatre. Two(2) second row, center seats for "At Home at the  Zoo" (formerly "Peter and Jerry") presented by the American Conservatory Theatre (A.C.T.) on June 11th at 8 pm.

American master Edward Albee's (Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, A.C.T.'s The Goat, or Who is Sylvia?) new spellbinder is a meticulously calibrated and dangerously brutal look at the lives of three New Yorkers. The story opens with Peter, a tweedy book editor, whose wife, Ann, tells him she wishes he'd get a little more animalistic in the bedroom. It's the kind of conversation that can drive a husband out for a walk—to Central Park, where Jerry, a desperate outcast, awaits. An unforgettable pairing of Albee's original The Zoo Story with a freshly penned prequel, At Home at the Zoo (formerly titled Peter and Jerry) bares its teeth to threaten the delicately balanced world its characters inhabit.
