Video Promo by Aaron Johnson: ORPHANS by Lyle Kessler, Street Corner Arts at the Back Pack, August 19 - September 3, 2016

Street Corner Arts: Orphans by Lyle Kessler from Aaron Johnson on Vimeo.

Two brothers live alone in a North Philadelphia row house. Treat steals for a living while Phillip stays at home, eating tuna fish sandwhiches. One night Treat brings home an older man to get him drunk and rob him. Turns out this man, Harold, is very rich and on the lam from a hitman. Harold establishes the orphans' house as a base of operations and, in a strange, hilarious, and moving way, begins to care for Treat and Phillip.
