Set deep in the Sagebrush Desert, PACKRAT is a puppet-forward new multi-media play that contemplates humanitys relationship with the natural world. At the center of the action is Bud, a peculiar rodent with a penchant for hoarding humankind's goods. When a discarded cigar sparks a wild fire, the animals in Buds valley flee for their lives. Already an outcast among the desert animals for his hoarding instincts, he gets blamed for the human-made disasters infiltrating their lives.

PACKRAT is a poignant account of Buds journey to find his place in the world, and his ultimate realization that the interconnectedness of life rules the day.
