First produced by the famed Steppenwolf theatre,
Orphans is the story of two brothers --
Phillip, a wildchild naif whose illiteracy and innocence belie a feral
intelligence, and Treat, a switchblade-wielding thief who manipulates his
brother into remaining dependent on him. Into this den of dysfunction comes
Harold, a not-so-legitimate businessman who takes the "Dead End Kids" under his
tutelage. At its core, Orphans is a
warped and disturbing father-and-son story.
