Michael Perry - Coop

Start: 06/10/2009 7:00 pm

Last seen sleeping off his wedding night in the back of a 1951 International pickup, Michael Perry (Truck) is now living in a rickety Wisconsin farmhouse. Faced with 37 acres of fallen fences and overgrown fields, and informed by his pregnant wife that she intends to deliver their baby at home, Perry plumbs his unorthodox past (raised in an obscure fundamentalist Christian sect by city-bred parents who took in over 100 foster children) for clues as to how he should proceed as a farmer and a parent. Alternately hilarious, tender, and real as pigs in mud, Coop is suffused with a contemporary desire to reconnect with the earth, with neighbors, with meaning… and with chickens.
