Audiences work together to play an epic video game about a donkey revolution, and take turns at the controller to lead the herd through a post-Industrial society, where asses are valued more for their hides than their potential. This is Animal Farm meets Pokémonmeets Final Fantasy. No previous gaming experience required.
