A WALRUS IN THE BODY OF A CROCODILE

by MJ Kaufman

A support group for things inside of things. A class for women writers. A raucous frat party. Strangers from different worlds meet on a train and unravel who they think they are. An absurd exploration of language and gender.

A WALRUS IN THE BODY OF A CROCODILE

Recommended by

  • Kate Tarker: A WALRUS IN THE BODY OF A CROCODILE

    I frequently teach this inventive, funny, moving and poetic play in classes and workshops, and it is always a huge hit. MJ takes a smart and deliciously sharp look at ways that speech shapes gender, while also offering a lyrical investigation of the many strange layers and shapes one's identity and sense of self can take on simultaneously.

    I highly recommend this unique play.
