    Blood dries darker than you think
    It's the moment of darkness into deeper darkness
    Are those my only options?
    Congealed red on the glass
    A mouse in your cereal box
    A noise up ahead
    A scratching between the wall
    As they shot them right through the wing
    Are you going to kiss me back?
    Are you going to?

    Nature is revolting! London struggles against an animal infestation - or does it? In the midst of the chaos, six characters endure a restrictive, claustrophobic existence: as curfews are enforced, roads closed and parks burned to the ground, their humanity is reduced to one alarmingly similar to their animal companions. Smith’s play presents a twisted version of natural selection that interrogates how far society will go to protect itself. As animal instincts kick in and civility is discarded, characters must choose between fight or flight. Should they bare their teeth and bite back, or roll over compliantly?
