Synopsis

When Annabelle Gurwitch Was A Child, Surrounded By A Cast Of Epically Dysfunctional Relatives, She Secretly Prayed That It Was All A Terrible Mistake. Maybe She Was A Long Lost Daughter Of Joni Mitchell Or The Reincarnation Of An Egyptian Princess. A Family Of Bootleggers, Gamblers, And Philanderers, The Gurwitches Have Always Been A Bit Vague On The Standard Ideal Of A Loving And Supportive Family. Their Definition Includes People You Can Count On To Borrow Money From, Hold A Grudge Against, Or Blackmail. One Day, Unfortunately, Gurwitch Woke Up To Realize That She'd Made Similar, If Not The Same, Mistakes As Everyone Else Before Her--just In A New Zip Code. Wherever She Went, There They Were. We Live Down The Street From Cat Town -- There's No People Like Show People -- Massacre Island -- Massacre Island, Part Ii -- Outward Hound -- Welcome Home, Sunshine -- What Price Sisterhood Now? -- Going Tribal -- Into The Mystic -- The Best Of All Possible Homes -- And They Shall Enter Singing The Songs Of Mumford And Sons -- Suddenly Sequins -- Have A Cigar, Harry. Annabelle Gurwitch.
