After receiving the healing gift from a dying Chinese oracle, Charlie O’Taney has transformed himself from a Brooklyn Mafia hit man into a mystic healer. Charlie’s saloon trawls festival sites presenting his Medicine Man Show, proffering authentic and somewhat bizarre remedies for a world desperately in need of miracles.

Three men are kept on a tight leash – literally – by their mistress. They’re out for a walk in the park, but treated no better than dogs. So they look for gratification by disturbing other people as much as they can. Their cheeky antics provoke questions about how humans relate to each other.
