An absolutely hilarious journey into a fantasy world set in Michigan, the show begins with an all white set, designed by Helene Helleu, covered by cottony snow with a sort of heavenly feel, as if we’re in the clouds. We know we’re not in a mundane world of kitchen sinks, but a dangerous, cold other-worldly place where men have come to search for themselves and fish, dreaming of the simplicity of their childhood and, maybe, to make peace.“
