Description In the tradition of this comic duo, 'Short Straw' is about two dreamers' mutual need to feed their heroic fantasies. Fraser and Sheedy's characters live in a world of imagined success and triumph, their days and nights consumed by tall tales and daring-do. Drawing on elements of clowning, vaudeville and slapstick, these two delusional hobos imagine a life more extraordinary.
